Hello there. Finding a counselor can be overwhelming, so I appreciate your presence. Research shows that meaningful change in therapy is grounded in a safe, warm, & accepting relationship. That’s why l work to build trust & learn about my clients' inner world. I believe that I can best support you if I understand the contexts of which you are a part & that shaped you—family, work, culture, & other systems.

My goal is to help you to resolve the problems that bring you to therapy and to help you to understand the personal and environmental factors that might have contributed to your problems. I draw from both insight-oriented and cognitive-behavioral approaches and I believe that therapy is first and foremost a collaborative partnership where the patient and therapist work together to achieve stability; restore functioning; remedy long-standing, problematic behavior patterns; and develop a platform for lifelong growth, renewed energy, self-development and enhanced relationships. I've been in practice since 1990.

Here's a hard dose of truth...you may not have caused all of your problems, but you still have to solve them. To that end, we often struggle internally with what we should change vs. what we should accept. That's where we come in! The answers are not always clear but they are attainable. It's time for you to prioritize YOU in a nonjudgmental, validating environment. Lastly, if you don't have the words to explain what's going on, we can help with that too.

Are you in tune with your true self and living your best life? If you feel like your inner purpose or clarity is lacking then let me reassure you: you're not alone! There are patterns of dissonance in everyone, it's part of the human condition. These patterns are passed down through generations and affect each of us in our experience of wellness. It’s the childhood programming or traumas and painful experiences that create wounds carried throughout a lifetime. Being confused about your true nature or downright believing the lies you tell yourself can feel like a prison of your own making.

Accepting New Clients - I believe life should be a lot easier than it is. We often become sidetracked by life due to classes, work, and mother duties. The pressure changes us into different people, and we often forget about our mental health. How do we get past reacting to life and start enjoying ourselves again? The answer is not easy because many factors fracture our attention, steal our resources, and prevent progress. My job is to help change these factors to set you up for success and aid in defining what success means for you.

Are you someone who had always thought therapy wasn't for you? Did it seem too fluffy and uncomfortable? And yet, you find yourself here because you are at a stuck point in life and need to make a change. Sometimes we find ourselves moving through patterns that just aren't working for us anymore, or knowing exactly what we need to do but feeling lost about how to put it into practice. If this sounds like you, I'd like to help.

Do you find yourself asking: "Shouldn't I be happier since having my child/ welcoming a child into your family; what's wrong with me? Why can't I do this one thing right?" Or feeling like your life is coming undone since a loss. feeling stuck, or that daily tasks feel unbearable? I am glad that you are doing the first step to finding support towards feeling well and confident again.

I understand that the challenges of life often move people away from others into places of isolation and shame.

I am passionate about helping adolescence and young adults find meaning and direction in their lives while supporting them through what can feel like the most difficult life transition - becoming a financially independent, confident, balanced, happy and healthy adult.
