Our life experiences and personal history are foundational chapters of our story, deeply
shaping our beliefs and behaviors. While it can sometimes feel as though a diagnosis or
past defines us, therapy offers a path to recognize the influence of these factors without
allowing them to dictate our future or limit our potential. The ultimate goal is to empower
you to take ownership of your healing journey and define your own worth. Together, we will work to challenge problematic core beliefs and build upon your
inherent strengths, cultivating the resilience and skills needed to lead a more fulfilling
life.

I specialize in working with individuals, couples, and families experiencing separation/ divorce, grief and loss, trauma, life transitions, family conflict, or any life circumstance they are not sure how to move forward with and need guidance.
I believe people already have the inner strength and wisdom to move forward; sometimes, they just need help accessing it. Life can cloud our judgment, wear down our confidence, and make our next steps feel impossible. I will help you sift through the messiness of life—offering fresh perspectives, encouragement, and space to breathe. Using experiential techniques like the empty chair, journaling, genograms, and sculpting, I will help you explore who you are and what you need. My goal is to support you in gaining deeper insight, so you can feel empowered to face your challenges with courage and clarity.

Life often feels hectic and out of control. At times it feels like life is living you, not the other way around. You feel like you have to always be "on". YOU FEEL EXHAUSTED. You have so many plates in the air and you put everyone else's happiness before your own. But now you are wondering why you bother because your sacrifices seem to go unnoticed and under appreciated. And somewhere in the process of taking care of everyone else you seemed to lose your sense of self. You can't even remember what it was like to live life as your best self, let alone how to get back to that place.

Divorce Therapists
How does therapy for people affected by a divorce work?
Individuals may feel a number of emotions following a divorce, such as shock, guilt, grief, anger, and fear. Therapists offer a non-judgmental space for individuals to talk about what they’ve experienced and process their emotions. Therapists will help clients develop coping strategies. They can also help a client rebuild their sense of self and self-worth and talk about what a happier future might look like.
What’s the most common type of therapy following a divorce?
There are several types of therapy that may be useful for divorce, including cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment, solution-focused brief, and mindfulness-based therapies. Many therapy types are talk-therapy based, which is typically the most popular option for individuals dealing with divorce. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a widely-used talk therapy, however, there’s no specific therapy type that’s designed to help people with divorce, and different types will work depending on the person.
When should an individual seek help due to a divorce?
When the feelings of a divorced individual, or an individual going through the process of divorce, begin to disrupt healthy daily functioning, it may be a good time to look into therapy. If a person finds that they are not performing at work due to problems with anxiety or motivation, if they’re no longer seeing friends due to feelings of shame, or if they’re not properly taking care of themselves as a result of depression, speaking to a professional could help.
How do you encourage someone to go to therapy due to a divorce?
It’s helpful to express concern and love for the individual while framing therapy as a tool for improving their life. Sharing how the individual appears to be suffering, and what effects it has on them or on their children, should be done with compassion and empathy. It may be useful to devise a game plan—breaking the process down into parts, such as finding a therapist, making appointments, and looking into insurance coverage.
