We are born into story and expectations. Sometimes, being ourselves is not safe. Without nurturing relationships, we work hard to survive on our own. We may avoid belonging or over-focus on fitting in. Options feel limited, our choices are not our own. You may achieve the ‘right’ education, profession, presentation or partner, but does it feel right for you? Deciphering our feelings can unleash many questions, and overwhelm. The good news is, you do not have to face change alone. Trust is a practice we can write together. Our stories are ours for the telling–and loving.

Life becomes meaningful when we learn to love and value the experiences we are having. When we fixate on what others aren't doing, fight what isn't happening, and focus on the "if onlys" and "should haves," we fall into the trap of believing our happiness and value depend on circumstances beyond our control. However, I’ve seen time and again that true contentment comes from remembering that our worth isn’t determined by external circumstances, but by our ability to trust in our own value.

Therapy offers us new ways of responding more effectively to life's challenges: understanding and managing mental health symptoms and developing better coping strategies when facing problems; tools for resolving difficulties and finding more fulfillment in relationships; the possibility of working through past and present trauma, grief and loss; and the opportunity to recognize how our thoughts, beliefs and behaviors affect our relationships to ourselves and others and how self-awareness creates the possibility of change and new experiences.

Life can be tough. We all face times when we are overwhelmed by major life changes or decisions, or experience sadness or depression for long periods of time that can make engaging in work and social activities difficult. Past traumas can also affect us in ways we don't expect, requiring a little help to process. My practice uses a strengths based approach to work through challenges together. I believe that we are all the experts of our own experiences, and I use this philosophy to help my clients achieve their goals.

I have worked with children, adolescents and adults with various emotional and mental health needs. My career began working with at-risk youth suffering from severe emotional disturbances. I later began working with children and families within their homes to secure a healthy balance of support and resources, while enhancing their sense of self. I enjoy working with individuals, families and couples. I am open to networking with any provider (i.e., teachers, primary care physicians, psychiatrists,etc.) that are involved in one's care. I believe in helping individuals identify their strengths and incorporating these strengths into their daily lives.

Unhappy with yourself and the way life is unfolding? Relationships not what you want them to be? Anxious? Angry? Increase esteem, improve your relationships and feel better now. We go through our lives with stories that shape who we are and how we see ourselves in the world. These stories and ideas can limit our identities preventing us from expressing our true, evolving natures and realizing our potentials. I collaborate with individuals and couples by providing a safe and introspective environment to examine and bring forward their own stories while exploring new perspectives that support and encourage positivity and confidence.

I'm a highly trained, intensely curious therapist - as comfortable with long stories as I am with total silence. I pay attention - with kindness, compassion and humor. Whoever you are, it's most likely true that you long for something, anything, to change. How on earth is this going to happen? It starts with curiosity - both yours and mine. You may come alone or with your partner. I am certified in evidence-based therapies for individuals and couples with trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship stress, and all of life's transitions.

Kudos to you! It takes such strength to acknowledge and respond to your needs and therapy is an incredibly effective way of gaining insight to promote self growth and achieve happiness. Our behaviors and day to day interactions with the world and the people in it, as well as how we feel about it, are based on a series of different parts; our thoughts, our experiences and our life events. My aim is to help you navigate difficult events, repair unhealthy interactions and get to the root of the issue; reframing unproductive thoughts and negative experiences so it is no longer hindering and you can become a better you.

Life is overwhelming. Maybe you are going through a big life transition like the arrival of a child or feeling overwhelmed by parenting. These stages can leave you feeling uncertain, anxious, and cause strain in your relationships with loved ones. There is so much pressure to “do it all” often leading to frustration, exhaustion, and a sense of isolation. I work with individuals, couples and families through these transitions; offering a compassionate, non-judgmental space where we can explore your thoughts and feelings, identify what’s weighing you down, and develop practical tools to help you cope with stress and find balance.
