My goal as your therapist is to provide a safe and non-judgmental environment where we work together toward your individual or relational goals. We will also work to understand you and your partner’s needs and investigate the impact of your relational experiences, family of origin relationships, and personal values on the issues that are creating disconnection.

Sometimes life doesn't end up as we imagined. Reality can be more difficult than we expected. You may be thinking, why didn't anyone prepare me for this? Why didn't anyone say it would feel this way?

You are not alone.

Are you harder on yourself than anyone else? If you've lost your zest for life through overthinking, perfectionism, and self-criticism, there's a way out.

Therapy is not a sign that you have failed to figure it all out nor is it an indication that your marriage or relationship is over. Rather, it is the beginning of a process of getting unstuck and getting healthy. We regularly get our car serviced even though it’s not broken. We need to take care of ourselves and our relationships as well. Getting to a healthier place is a lot easier to navigate with someone who is outside of your situation.

Living in a world that constantly tells us it’s not okay to be who we truly are is hard, hurtful, and exhausting. I want to help you be more of you - not less. To help you be gentle with yourself, own your voice, take up space, and feel liberated to be your full, authentic, and dynamic self. If you’re tired of shrinking yourself or being shrunk by others, I want to support you as you embrace this process of expansion. My goal as a counselor is to help you accept yourself just as you are, have compassion for where you are right now, and commit to making changes that help you live a meaningful, values-driven life that works for you.

My approach to counseling is to use existentialism to assist the client in reaching their journey with the accountability and acceptance that they are unique and powerful. By using a collaboration of tools the individual and myself are able to discover a pathway that requires hard work, but freedom in knowing that each step is celebrated. I value my clients journey as it is what has created their character, it is my desire to assist them to live life with purpose using their journey to succeed.

Stress and anxiety can leave us feeling overwhelmed, unsure and alone. You may be fed up with feeling constantly on edge, explaining it to others who don’t understand, or shame over feeling the way you do. You might not even remember a time when you didn’t feel this way. Either way, one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to feel relaxation in your body. You’re ready to feel like you can handle what comes your way. You’re ready to feel at peace with your decisions. Most of all your ready to live your life with purpose. You’re ready for a new “normal” and I can help you get there.

You’re ready to enjoy your daily life without worrying about everything. You’re ready to wake up each morning and know everything is ok. Work with me!

There are times in everyone's lives that they need guidance, support, or just a sounding board.

I am a believer in the human experience and normalizing the suffering that is a part of that experience. I do not take a pathological approach to individuals' mental health. I believe you will suffer within your lifetime and that we can work together to build your capacity for resilience.

Presently I work with children from ages four and up as well as adults.

I am passionate about working with adults 18+ who struggle with painful emotions that lead to problem behaviors, especially in relationships. No doubt you have tried many different strategies to feel less emotional and to take charge of your behavior. No one can see the inner struggle you have with BIG feelings and reactivity. You are smart, talented, and competent. You just need more emotional stability so that others can believe in you. You know WHO you are, and you know if others could just see the REAL you, they would find a friend and someone worth loving. You are ready NOW...to be seen and known, and to make a difference.

Being autistic means existing in a sometimes perplexing and frustrating world that largely caters much more to the neurotypical brain. Over time this can manifest in a host of issues, ranging from depression and anxiety to social isolation and loneliness. The good news is that your brain possesses hidden strengths and abilities that can more than make up for these supposed deficits. To this end, I use creative approaches to draw these skills out and teach my clients how to apply their strengths in the areas where they are struggling.
