You’re exhausted, overwhelmed by the pace of modern life, stuck in relationships or jobs that don’t fulfill you. You want to change but you’re too bogged down by your inner critic that says you’re “too much” or “not enough”. You’re ready to feel at home with yourself, at home in your life. That’s where I come in. Together we will help you alleviate anxiety and past trauma to manifest more joy, peace, & meaningful connection. We will work to understand and heal your people-pleasing & perfectionist parts so you can learn what YOU truly want in life & how to get it on your own terms.

Our relationships have an enormous impact on our lives, and having tension in our most important relationships can cause tension in all areas of our lives. I understand the importance of resolving the stress in our relationships, and the care and patience it takes to do so. Together, we can help develop the tools to create improved communication and support to work towards healthy connections in life.

The single most important factor in successful psychotherapy is the relationship between client and therapist; effective therapy starts from the moment you call or email. If you feel unsure, please contact me about setting up your first appointment.

Overwhelmed by stress? Losing control? Having mood swings? Life is messy. Sometimes it takes a crisis to urge us to get the help we need. We can talk and face your challenges together. Whether dealing with today’s pressures or events from the past, counseling is a valuable experience. You will speak confidentially in a judgment free zone. Counseling helps you to see all your options. Once identified problems are less scary. You become calmer and less stressed after developing new strategies. By responding to life proactively you reclaim control in difficult situations.

You may be wondering what a counseling experience feels like. Let's begin by picturing counseling as a "walking alongside" relationship during a painful, conflicted, or confused time. As we begin talking together, your concerns, and your desires for counseling will lay the foundation for clarifying your goals for therapy. Often, a creative plan for removing obstacles in the way helps us get unstuck and moving forward quite naturally.

Sometimes our interactions in life can lead to stress, depression, anxiety, sleep difficulties, problems with interpersonal relationships, trauma, and Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Together we can explore effective strategies to help you navigate whatever you are experiencing. Our journey will begin with establishing trust through respect and empathy, then we will begin to explore the origin of your stressors, and identify tools to help you learn and grow while ultimately empowering you to feel your best. Your healing can begin the moment you contact me.

I am a licensed clinical social worker, providing individual therapy. I have experience working with children, adolescents, young adults, and adults. I use an empathic, client-centered focus to help each individual work to make positive life changes. My areas of interest include working with individuals who are experiencing anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma related issues, and life transitions. I strive to help each individual client find the power within, in order to become the best version of themselves.

Are you struggling with balancing your emotions in relationships, at work, or in everyday activities? Are sadness, anxiety, or loneliness a result? My primary focus is centered upon embracing one's inherent strengths while eliminating toxic behaviors and thoughts. This process aids individuals in building stronger and more powerful relationships with themselves and others, as well as fosters greater life satisfaction. I have had extensive training in Relationship Issues, Couples Counseling, Toxic Relationships, Divorce, Stepfamilies, Grief Therapy, Forgiveness Therapy, Anxiety and Depression, and Coping Skills.

There is only one relationship we are guaranteed to have for our entire lives — and that is our relationship to ourselves. I aim to help you make it compassionate and giving, self expressing, and with appropriate boundaries as needed for you to protect your most authentic Self. I believe that all of our behaviors are adaptive; some we’ve just outgrown and they are no longer serving the best interests of our well-being. But they come from an honest place of having to adapt to circumstances which we did not create.

Most of us experience frustration and some degree of disorder in our daily lives. However, what we think about the way we feel will impact the behaviors we engage in and the choices we make. Going through our days feeling overwhelmed and never understood is a choice we make, which for us becomes acceptable when we think too much of what other's will think about us. Can I tell you that this time it is alright to think of yourself first? I counsel with individuals or couples seeking to improve overall mental health well-being and/or strengthen relationships.

If you have hit a rough patch and need help sorting things through you can be sure that I will provide you with a safe and warm space to explore. I bring 20+ years of experience working with individuals and families. My approach is holistic and person centered with an emphasis on collaboration. You will find me to be compassionate yet no-nonsense. We provide a "Good Faith Estimate for Health Care Items and Services," under the No Surprises Act. My philosophy comes from Dr. Martin Luther King JR: "I can never be what I ought to be until you are what you are supposed to be....."

Are you unable to achieve the goals and dreams that you desire? Are you suffering from internal upset, fears, flashbacks of a trauma, insecurities, self-doubt, feeling unloved, disheartened or deep sadness? Are your relationships "not working", conflictual, "empty" and non-supportive? Do you think, "Why can't I make the changes that I want in my life and live the life I desire?" If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, contact me now. I know that I can be of service to you in a rewarding, life changing manner. It is time. YOU are worth it!

Everyone has times in their lives when stress seems overwhelming, when ways that we use to cope just aren't working anymore, or are even making the situation worse. Even more so coming out of a pandemic. You might be sad, anxious, hurting yourself or isolating and want to change. Counseling can help you to move forward at times when you feel stuck, can help you to develop new coping skills and tools to manage life's challenges, and rediscover the strength inside you. I provide an accepting, non-judgmental, confidential environment, and a safe place to explore your thoughts and feelings with a caring, compassionate listener.

The first step in making a change is doing exactly what you are doing by being here. I am looking forward to working with you and establishing a therapeutic relationship.

My goal is create a safe, empathetic, and non-judgmental space in order to help you thrive and feel ready to face your current challenges. This is your journey and I am here to support you as you move forward in your positive growth and change. My style is interactive and I develop a unique approach tailored to each individual client.
