Every person I serve has a unique story. While some clients experience challenges in just one area, most experience difficulty multiple areas (mental health, trauma, loss, addiction), creating a complex, vicious cycle if not all parts are addressed. The circumstances that bring someone to therapy do not come in 'neat little packages.' I enjoy sorting out the pieces with each client, getting to the root of the issue, and offering a combination of evidence-based therapeutic interventions that help clients finally begin to experience relief, and start living a happier, more fulfilled life.

Life can be challenging and remaining on a unproductive path can make us "stuck". I believe in the power of hope as a central factor in providing the motivation necessary for change that can propel individuals and families towards the future of their dreams. Shared hope for a positive future is the underpinning of all that I do. I am devoted to helping individuals and families fulfill their hopes for the future. It is known that positive expectations promote psychological and physical well-being. I focus on developing hope-inspiring strategies that mobilize internal and external resources for sustaining healthy change.

You find yourself feeling stressed, drained, and anxious. Sleep has been evading you but you are tired all the time. You feel unsure about trusting yourself to make decisions, even small choices make you nervous. You are frustrated with your current outlook in life, unsure of where to go next. You feel like you don't have what it takes, you barely have the energy to get through the day.

Do you find yourself paralyzed by anxiety and overwhelm, no matter what you do? You're someone who is successful, but still find yourself feeling as if you never do enough. You keep prioritizing making everyone else happy, leaving little time to take care of yourself. Compassion for others comes easy for you but you can't seem to find that same compassion for yourself and your inner critic takes over any time you make a mistake. But you're ready to make a change. You're ready to make yourself a priority. Most of all, you are ready to feel better about yourself and have more balance in your life. I want to help you get there.

Have you ever made a choice and immediately asked yourself: "Why in the world did I do that?" Imagine if you had talked with someone you trusted before you made that choice. What a difference some compassion and understanding can make. Lighten your burden with someone to walk with you through your difficult life choices. Whether you're wrestling with a work-related challenge or a situation in your intimate relationship, I can offer you a safe space, a ready ear, and help with the choices you're trying to make. Feel heard, understood, and confident in your decisions. That's what therapy offers.

I work with individuals and couples with a focus on niche issues that live on the edge of societal norms; trauma, sex, gender, relationship conflict to name a few. Gender and sexuality define who we are, the way we love, and how we connect with others. Diverse and, therefore, controversial, our gender and our sexuality are too often handled without acknowledgment of the power they hold. My goal is to assist clients in shining a light into dark places so that healing can take place.

On the surface; you seem fine, but inside, you have a self-critical voice that won’t let up. You have a lot of feelings that you feel deeply. This can be a strength but it can also leave you feeling confused about why others don't see what you see. Others may have told you that you are too sensitive but you also may be the person that they come to for advice or support. Maybe you have been hesitant to try counseling because you feel that you should be able to figure this out yourself.

Struggling with anxiety, depression, racing thoughts, disrputed sleep, grief, career choices, and relationship strain make life tiring. It doesn't have to be this way. There are many tools you can learn to ease the struggle and find greater joy in your everyday living.

In fact, men who DO seek objective help tend to benefit greatly from an experience unlike most in male friendship circles.

Being stressed may feel normal, but it doesn't have to continue. Your days are full, you are tired, and taking care of yourself comes in last place on your to-do list. From the outside looking in you appear driven, responsible, and confident, but it never feels like enough. The things you are pouring yourself into don't feel as fulfilling as they once did. You feel accomplished, yet empty; successful, but waiting for the other shoe to drop. You've worked hard to build your life, but you know you want to, and need to, make a change.

Life is hard. Intense emotions, life transitions, difficulty with relationships, mental health concerns, trauma, rejection and loneliness; are only a few of the things we can struggle with at any given time. But you don’t have to deal with these issues alone. Counseling can serve as a place for you to process past hurts and life changes, identify unhelpful relationship patterns, find new coping skills and resources for strong emotions or mental health issues, or provide yourself with the ultimate self-care by setting an hour aside to reflect on where you are, where you want to go, and what obstacles are in the way of your goals
