In life, we can experience very difficult challenges that require change. Some of those challenging events may be difficult to move on from, leave you feeling stuck and unsure of how to proceed. Therapy can be a helpful way of helping you explore events, process emotions, and grow within new perspectives. I can help provide a warm, compassionate environment to do just that. It is important to me that you feel heard and understood. I find that in this type of therapeutic space, individuals are much more open to taking steps towards flexibility, developing insight, and finding a self-compassion they may not have discovered before.

I believe that each of us is a complete person with unique challenges, experiences, strengths, and opportunities for growth and change. A life that includes pain, mistakes, betrayal, or trauma is not a broken life or one less worthy of love or a better future. Everyone goes through times when we can benefit from an ally to walk alongside us, assist us in reaching our goals, or empower us to find our magic. My approach is one of acceptance and non-judgement for the person in front of me, creating a safe space for self-discovery. I am honored to have the privilege of my profession and I look forward to the journey with each client.

Through a compassionate and supportive therapeutic relationship, I nonjudgmentally help my clients explore and understand their emotions, develop healthy coping strategies, and build resilience.

I am a short term, wellness oriented and goal focused therapist. A joyful and purpose driven life is what most of us strive for but when things do not go our way it is easy to sink into states of temporary anxiety and depression. I teach techneques that help stimulate the vagus nerve, which activates the parasympathic nervous system. These are simple things like humming, getting close to nature, relaxation, massages, listening to relaxing music and eating foods that do not cause nervousness such as high caffeine intake or alcohol. Good diet contributes to mental stabllity and equanimity.

I have found that children and youth are often struggling to find their voice and identity in a world they have little control of. This can often present in a variety of ways including, negative behaviors at home or at school, depressed and anxious moods, difficulty communicating their needs, self-harming tendencies, and so much more.

Children often struggle with emotions; identifying, expressing and processing their feelings can be very difficult. Anger can rear its ugly head when underneath it may really be a whole bunch of other emotions going on. Some children need to express themselves other than verbally. Play and art therapy techniques, sand tray, and therapeutic games can be used as ways for kids to process emotions without talking or feeling pressured. Children often just need to be heard, given skills, and provided with opportunity for little successes that can increase their self-esteem. Parents are invited to learn valuable tools as well.
