Therapy is a place where you are free to be yourself and feel empowered to make changes in your life to improve your overall wellbeing. I have been in the mental health field for several years and specialize in working with those struggling with depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder. I also work to help resolve family conflict (communication strategies and boundary setting skills). I have a direct approach to therapy and use humor when appropriate to help lighten the conversation. I mainly use CBT through our sessions as I've found it offers a large variety of skills that are easy to implement in your daily life.

Everyone has an individual story with experiences that make them unique. There is not one answer that fits all. Many times in life we get stuck and are not sure where to turn. We misplace hope, and life gets out of focus. In these times we need support and encouragement to help us realign our lives and discover what we desperately need to find fulfillment and success. I believe that the counseling journey is one in where both the counselor and the client work together to discover a better sense of self in relationship with others, while growing a more intimate connection with God. Hope is found in true healing and wholeness.

If you’re here, congrats. Chances are you realize something needs to change. Often times people come to therapy after they’ve already exhausted every resource and option they know. It’s a huge step to ask for help and an even bigger step to show up and take it.

Two specific areas of my expertise are working with men who struggle with emotional availability and anger, and perinatal mental health.
First and foremost, I want to help you create a space for exploration and healing. We will do that by working together to build a partnership that is as unique as you are. People tend to look into counseling when life events feel overwhelming, difficult to navigate, and stressful. I am here to really listen and I want to understand what you’re facing. Much of who we are as people is directly related to the relationship between ourselves and our emotions. I firmly believe that we each hold the unique power to grow and solve issues inside ourselves. Healing takes curiosity and intention.

Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Therapists
What are the most effective ways to address pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum concerns?
The most effective way to address pregnancy, prenatal, and postpartum concerns is by finding a therapist who has prior experience helping other patients overcome the challenge being faced. For example, a marriage and family therapist may have experience helping couples adjust to their new relationship dynamic. An anxiety specialist may have experience helping with phobias or illness anxiety related to the child’s health. A depression specialist may have experience treating postpartum depression.
When should I seek treatment for prenatal or postpartum concerns?
Pregnancy and the postpartum period involve intense physical and mental changes; a degree of upset and instability is normal. However, if these changes impair daily functioning, it may be time to seek help. This distinction is pertinent for postpartum depression: A period of teariness, irritability, and distress is difficult but normal in the one to two weeks after childbirth (sometimes called the “baby blues.”) But if feelings of sadness and hopelessness persist beyond that period, the person should seek treatment.
How do I manage worries during pregnancy or the postnatal period?
A therapist can help patients develop the tools they need to manage anxieties during or after pregnancy. Cognitive behavioral therapy can help people identify and reframe harmful patterns of thought, and change their behaviors. Other techniques and skills can allow people to develop acceptance, psychological flexibility, self-compassion, communication skills, and more.
Are there specific medications for postpartum depression?
In 2019, the FDA approved the first medication designed to treat postpartum depression. The medication is called brexanolone and is delivered intravenously by a medical professional over the course of a few days. However, typical antidepressants, which are more accessible, can also treat postpartum depression. The disorder is often best treated through a combination of medication and therapy.
