Everyone said having a baby would be the most magical time in your life, but you're finding that juggling the demands of parenthood and partnership leave you feeling more unappreciated, unseen in your marriage, and overwhelmed than you've ever been before. Feelings of loneliness and anxiety visit more than you could have imagined, and worry sets in that maybe you'll never cut it as a mom. Know it doesn't have to be this way. You can trust your abilities as a parent, enjoy the here-and-now with your partner and your baby, and approach both the chaos and beauty of parenthood with compassion, confidence, and humor.

Most of the time we can manage the ups and downs of life without extra support. Then something shifts, and it can feel like it all collapses like a house of cards. Quickly, it can feel like you don't even recognize yourself anymore. None of the skills you were using to successfully manage your life work like they used to. You're overwhelmed and at a loss for how to get unstuck. At times even the seemingly tiniest of changes can shake us to our foundations, and leave us feeling adrift; but change is often the perfect opportunity to grow.

Hello! I work with adults and adolescents who are trying to navigate a wide range of emotions, thoughts, and behaviors that may be causing distress/stress in their lives. This can include anxiety, work-related stress, depression, suicidal ideation, relationship issues, anger, or just overall not feeling as well as you'd like to. I believe that true emotional health comes from being able to feel and manage a wide range of feelings without becoming overwhelmed. I can help support clients as they move toward a more holistic sense of wellness that is sustainable.

I'm very person centered, often incorporating aspects of cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing and trauma focused approaches.
Everyone has a story unique to one's own experience - sometimes those stories involve trauma, heartache, hurt, anxiety, and uncertainty, which can often feel overwhelming to face alone. I have experience working with clients of all ages and walks of life. Each client is considered worthy, purposeful and is treated with compassion. I enjoy serving adolescent females and adults who are working through past traumas, current life stressors and who want to learn practical methods to manage anxiety.

Is your preschooler running your household? Has your teenager been pushing you to the edge? There are many different theories on how to manage unwanted behaviors in children, and help your struggling teen. Some of these theories can leave parents with more questions than answers. You might ask yourself, "Does my child need more attention, or am I giving too much? Are my expectations of my teenager too high, or too low? If I ask for help, does that make me a good parent, or an incompetent one?" I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and their families, and I can help you find answers.

Feeling heard and validated is important for self discovery and growth. Reaching out for help can be very difficult at first. We all know that taking care of ourselves physically is important and now we know it is as important to take care of ourselves mentally and emotionally. Going to therapy is like going to the doctor for a cold or to the gym to gain some physical strength. The challenges you face deserve the very best care; together we can develop a strategy for better life satisfaction.
