More than anything, I am here for the parents who worry. Few things in life are more painful than watching our children, the ones we have loved so tenderly, struggle to be accepted, to get back on track, to wrestle with their self esteem, with loneliness, fear, or even hopelessness. If you feel you are stuck watching a situation play out that you can't bear but can’t seem to change, help is here. Whether you are a new parent, in the thick of too many drop offs and pick ups, or preparing to send your child out into the wide wide world, now is the right time for positive change.

Are "Moody", "Overly Sensitive", or "Needy"- words people use to describe you, or maybe how you describe yourself? Do you feel like your life is one stressful event after another? Does it seem like no one 'gets' you or people have given up on you? If you are looking for a therapist who wants to help you understand your moods/feelings and improve your relationships, I might be the one for you. Our feelings and behaviors can be impacted by our genetics or trauma. Either way, you can learn to manage them before they manage you!

Being a human is hard. Being in relationships with other humans? Also hard. Most of us weren't taught specific skills for dealing with emotions, stress, communication, conflict, or trauma. But we each have the capacity to learn and the innate ability to heal. I work with individuals and relationship systems as they navigate life — overcoming difficulties, repairing past wounds, and building deeper, stronger, more meaningful connections. I offer empathy and compassion to all my patients and believe in the deeply healing powers of humor, honesty, acceptance, and emotional expression.

My ideal client is a high-achieving adult who is used to performing under pressure and holding it all together, but is starting to feel overwhelmed, burned out or stretched too thin.
You may be navigating a demanding career, a relationship shift, or a major life transition. On the outside, things might look fine, but internally, you feel mentally exhausted, emotionally drained, or off balance.
Many of the people I work with are capable and driven, but over time that constant pressure can lead to anxiety, burnout, and a sense that something is no longer working the way it used to.

Sometimes life throws us a serious curve ball; whether it's coming to terms with a new medical diagnosis, adapting a disability, coping with the stress of career transition, or the loss of a significant relationship, these dilemmas can send us reeling.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and depressed? You may be tired from trying to give everyone your best and still feel like you aren't enough.

Do you become fearful of success, self-sabotage growth, and yet continue to seek deeper meaning and purpose in your life? If this message resonates with you it's time to do something different! Ask yourself - What's the best that can happen?

Talking about the hard stuff is tempting to avoid. My goal as your therapist is to provide a space that feels authentic and warm so that we can discuss that hard stuff as a team. From identity exploration to finding meaning in life to observing patterns in relationships, therapy is a wonderful resource to build insight and learn about yourself. I believe strongly in building a life that reflects what is most important to you. I also work often with attachment theory and exploring why we are interacting the way we are with others based on past experiences and current needs.
