Since 1992, I have had the honor of accompanying countless individuals in their journey towards living more authentic and satisfying lives. I am convinced that everyone possesses the ability to live their life to its fullest potential. As your counselor, my role is to help awaken you to this dormant power within. I believe that we all function based on the beliefs instilled in us at an early age and are reinforced in various ways throughout our lives. It is when we begin to challenge these "truths" that we experience a great awakening and discover our true self.

Therapy doesn't have to be hard or scary when you've found the right fit. Many of my clients are thoughtful, caring people who often appear to have it all together while privately struggling with anxiety, relationship challenges, communication difficulties, intimacy concerns, life transitions, or the impact of past experiences. Some feel disconnected from themselves or stuck in patterns they can't seem to change. Together, we'll create a safe, compassionate space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported as you move toward greater connection, confidence, and fulfillment. I would be honored to be part of that journey.

I wholeheartedly believe in the resilience of the human spirit and that each of us are imbued with the desire to achieve, to connect and have peace. Change is usually associated with stress and we are not fond of it; we find comfort in our routine even when that routine is allowing us to feel overwhelmed, underappreciated and at its worst, neglected or abused. Change is what inspires and produces growth. Without growth, we whither and shrink away becoming someone whom we barely recognize. We are life forces and energy that need growth in order to realize our fullest potential

Have you ever heard anyone say that therapy is 'magical' and that it 'fixes everything'? I'm going to be real with you. It's not that simple. It is definitely a place where you can understand yourself more and get to know the real you (and be okay with it). Regardless of what is going on in life or how chaotic or 'crazy' it gets, therapy can be a pit stop to examine what is going on in your world and your mind. The work is beneficial in bettering yourself and equipping you with tools to get back out there.

You are overwhelmed. You don't know how to keep up with the demands of life. You wonder, "how'd I get here?" You are sick and tired of being sick and tired. You want to laugh again and enjoy life again. You need a restart, a refocus but don't know where to begin. My clients are compassionate, kind, and motivated to help everyone else in their lives but have lost touch with themselves. They have spent so long saying yes to everyone else the idea of saying no and possibly disappointing others is crippling. You can work on finding yourself again. You don't have to do it alone.

Therapy is pointless. If I could feel or act differently, I would.
Have you ever felt this way?
As a young adult, I sought out different therapists as I transitioned through different stages of adulthood. Often I would walk away frustrated because I felt many of those therapists only managed the surface of my problems. When I became a therapist I devoted myself to becoming one that would actually be helpful for my clients. As your therapist, I am committed to helping you achieve your goals, whatever they may be.

You wake up and tell yourself today will be different. Maybe you’ll finally feel lighter, more focused, more “you.” But then the thoughts start crowding in before the coffee even brews—worries about work, the past, or that one conversation you keep replaying. You get through the day, mostly on autopilot, pretending it’s fine. Some days it is. Other days it isn’t. You can’t remember the last time you felt genuinely calm, like your brain wasn’t running a marathon without a finish line.

Many of my clients are thoughtful, sensitive people who appear high-functioning on the outside but feel overwhelmed, self-critical, or emotionally drained on the inside. I work especially well with women, as well as queer, trans, and nonbinary folks, who struggle with perfectionism, overthinking, people-pleasing, and feeling responsible for others’ emotions. Over time this can lead to burnout, identity confusion, and a persistent sense of being “too much” or “not enough.” If this sounds familiar, therapy can help you find relief from these patterns and build a kinder, healthier relationship with yourself.

Codependency Therapists
What therapy types help with codependency problems?
Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.
What happens in therapy for codependency?
Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.
How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?
Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.
What is the goal of therapy for codependency?
One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
