Sometimes we all can use a little help on life's journey--when things seem dark, when we feel like we are drowning in emotions, challenges, or thoughts, or when we just need someone to help with focus as we set a course toward achieving our goals. That is what therapy is all about! Therapy is not having someone with all the right answers tell you what to do or doing things to you; it is having a professional guide to draw out your goals and strengths, to breathe hope into difficult times, and to assist with perspective and skills. As Rumi said, "The wound is where the light enters you." Come, find hope, and refuel for your journey.

People of all ages can be helped by speaking to a professional about challenges in daily life. The value of the services you receive is related to the effectiveness of the services in meeting your goals. I am committed to providing effective services by maintaining a smaller number of clients, increasing the amount of time I am able to devote to each couple, family, or individual I work with. If you are looking for extra support and guidance through a challenging situation or are just ready to move in a different direction, I look forward to working with you.

"The best way to help someone is not to change them, but instead help them reveal the greatest version of themselves". We are all born with the capacity to operate at our best, yet life circumstances sometimes make us question our existence, value, and purpose. In each session, my purpose is to guide you on a transformative journey toward discovering and embracing your authentic self and empowering you to live your fullest potential. I am dedicated to creating a supportive space that not only cultivates self-discovery but also provides counseling and coaching to assist individuals in dealing with life's challenges.

Having struggles with depression, anxiety, fear, past traumas, or addictive behaviors? I invite you to experience a new way of healing old wounds, finding new sources of energy to improve your relationships, and embark on the journey of self-discovery. I can share with you refined ways of managing symptoms of depression, anxiety, low self -image, dealing with past traumas, addressing addictions, and relationship issues, utilizing depth work, motivational therapies, and cognitive behavioral therapies.

I provide support and guidance so that my clients do not have to bear their struggles alone. We work collaboratively to understand what is not working and why. We examine past patterns of experience to help us understand current feelings and behaviors. We can create lasting change and transformation by addressing the underlying issues. I emphasize individual empowerment which allows the client to own their own victories. Empowerment creates a ripple effect which can transcend every aspect of ones life not just in one specific area.

I help clients understand their behaviors, habits, addictions, and attitudes. I utilize evidenced-based therapies and motivational enhancement techniques to assist clients in shedding the behaviors and habits that have been holding while facilitating work towards positive life change and goal achievement. In addition to my focus on addiction, I work with a variety of other mental health concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues. I also serve as leader and facilitator of addiction groups, support groups, mindfulness groups and moderation management groups at Coast Psychological Services.

I am humbled by the work done collaboratively with individuals while helping them reach their goals. Healing is a journey, and I am here to assist you in becoming a Happier, Healthier, and more Whole version of yourself. Clients who are ready for change, and the work it takes, reach out to me. Have you ever wondered how to overcome the trauma, grief, depression, and anxiety that prevents you from living your best possible life? If your answer is "yes," let's connect. I specialize in treatments that can help.

I am a very blunt therapist and will always lay out the process and what that looks like for each individual client. The intake can be very boring, as I ask many questions to gain an understanding of how I can help. I then make sure we have a mutual agreement when creating a plan for therapy that includes how we can recognize progress in therapy. I typically do not assign homework as I understand that there is not always time for homework with all of life's demands. I specialize in trauma and couples but have worked with many different diagnoses.

Hi! I am so glad you are considering therapy. Life can be so challenging at times and therapy is a great place to learn about yourself, process any emotions that have held you back from becoming everything you want, and to move toward a direction of healing and hope. I have worked in addiction and mental health for over 10 years in various capacities. I feel honored to hear your story and walk alongside your journey of recovery and healing. My passion is guiding you through trauma to find understanding, compassion and peace within yourself. Working through deep rooted trauma can be difficult.

Navigating life's transitions can be challenging at times. During those times, when you are living in overwhelm and wondering about which decision is best for you in that moment, who do you rely on to process that information? Where and who is your support system? Do you know what you need or want in that moment? You need a person and space where safety abounds and judgement does not exist. Let's talk!

Grief, trauma and systemic oppression have increasingly become visible and universal experiences affecting individuals, couples, families and communities. I began my career working with the survivors of intimate partner violence and individuals/families grappling with cancer and death. These experiences have informed my practice working with individuals, couples and families dealing with loss, grief, trauma, anxiety/depression, major life changes, chronic illness, abuse and relational distress.

My goal is to provide a safe, therapeutic environment, where clients can share their innermost struggles and challenges without feeling judged or criticized. Therapy is an avenue to address the challenges in life that sometimes seem unmanageable. I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship, based on genuine acceptance and unconditional positive regard, can be the pathway for change to occur. I work with individuals, adults, and teens on a variety of issues and disorders including but not limited to depression, anxiety, parenting issues​, abuse, grief, trauma, low self-esteem, life cycle transitions, and substance abuse.

Some people experience more trauma than others. Success in therapy is feeling comfortable telling me what’s working for you—but also what isn’t working. It’s about what we can accomplish together to help you face hardship and emerge stronger and with greater purpose. That doesn’t mean your worst day is behind you. But I would like the opportunity to help you see the path that makes sense to you, and to provide you with tools that will help you daily. There is no handbook to make things easier, but there is a cooperation between us that forges strength out of your individuality and empowers you to see through the chaos into the calm.

Whether you are going through grief, healing from trauma, struggling with relationship issues or need assistance navigating life’s challenges and changes, I am here to help you achieve the clarity, confidence, and momentum necessary to get from where you are to where you want to be. Together, we will work to identify and address the issues and obstacles keeping you from moving forward and getting what you want out of your life.

Living authentic lives aligned with our true values & beliefs is challenging at times. When out of alignment, we may recognize we no longer function well, feel stuck, or lack a sense of meaning and purpose. Previous coping strategies may no longer be sufficient to deal with life’s unexpected events. We may need help to access our innate wisdom & strengths, claim our own voice & self-worth, & free ourselves to move towards our goals.
