I specialize in working with individual adults and
couples
, the LGBTQA community, clients from various ethnic backgrounds, health and wellness issues, and work related stressors.
One person's crisis is another person's opportunity, especially given the unprecedented circumstance we all find ourselves coping with. For many of us prior to this crisis/opportunity we were unable to give attention to our emotional world whether it be due to time, energy, fear and/or self-doubt. Therapy offers an avenue to get to know ourselves in a different way than experienced before. I deeply believe our current crisis can be an opportunity for many of us to be one notch better than before.

I have over a decade of experience working with adults,
couples
, and children.
I understand that powerful life events and subtle life experiences shape the direction of life. Therapy offers an avenue to understand what is happening and provides an experience that can empower you to make choices about your life. Especially, when we are left with feelings of frustration, hurt, doubt, worry, sadness, self-blame, or loneliness. In other words, we become “unhappy.”

For years It has been my privilege to work with women of all ages navigating life transitions and hardships such as separations, troubled relationships (with a
partner
, family or friends, or one's body), navigating the roller coaster of motherhood, or experiencing a loss. Regardless of our experiences, beliefs, or social circumstances, we all fight the silent and lonely battles of not feeling we are enough. As women, we are often subjected to conflicting and competing expectations about love, sex, parenting, work, and relationships. In the face of such imposing outside opinions, it is essential to check in with yourself:

I specialize in working with individuals and
couples
who are committed to fix their relationship or interested in identifying if dissolving their relationship is what's best.
Nobody could've prepared you for the amount of dissatisfaction your relationship gives you. The commitment to love hasn't changed, but over time resentment has built up because of how unappreciated you feel for everything you do. You get the sense that there is an expectation that you perform certain duties without any acknowledgement for how burdensome that expectation can be. You try to express yourself, but feel like you're better off holding your feelings in to avoid an argument. Does this sound familiar?
