Deciding to seek help for issues in your life takes courage. It isn’t easy to decide who the right person is to trust and open up to about your life or even to believe that doing so will result in improvements. I work with my clients collaboratively. Together we discuss how you are feeling, what is going on in your life, and how you would like to move forward. No matter what you are dealing with, whether it be anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, general stress, or something else, our discussions will be geared towards helping you understand what you want and developing skills to be resilient and thrive in your life ahead.
I have been in practice for more than 25 years, helping adults and couples facing life’s many challenges. This experience has taught me that every person coming to therapy has their own circumstances needing understanding and attention. You and your personal needs and goals will be at the center of our work.
I have specialized training in trauma, mindfulness in treating depression and anxiety, and working with individuals in the LGBTQ+, ADHD, Veteran, and IC populations. Together we will work to gain awareness and use knowledge in resilience, the brain-body connection, and CBT to help you move ahead in your life journey.
