When meeting with me, you can expect to be treated with warmth as a whole person who has individualized identities, values, and strengths. My goal is to aid people in becoming happier and healthier individuals, whatever this means to you.

Are you feeling anxious, isolated, depressed? Or having difficulties in relationships? Or blocked creatively? Problems in living can be encountered despite accomplishment. I help you identify blocks in relationships, career, creativity. Life is also full of unexpected shocks; therapy can be an auxiliary shock absorber.

As a Psychotherapist and Couples Counselor, I've found that when you mix scientific models, with 10 years of experience, some concrete tools, lots of coaching, and a dash of humor, you get a powerful healing combo platter.

I believe everyone has the innate capacity to heal, and approach therapy as a way of counteracting the influence of systems of oppression that can stand in the way of self-acceptance, embodiment, and connecting with others. I work with a variety of challenges to connection and wellbeing, including anxiety, self-worth, interpersonal relationships, gender and sexuality, trauma (CPTSD, intergenerational, identity-related), and integrating difficult emotions.

I recently expanded my practice, adding two clinicians to better serve those looking for therapy. At Guiding Steps Psychotherapy, our mission is to help people heal from trauma and other adverse life experiences, anxiety, and depression. We work with survivors of sexual abuse/assault, those who have experienced traumatic loss from death or infidelity, individuals suffering from addiction, and others working through traumatic adjustments such as loss of a job or severe illness. I also counsel couples working to improve their relationships, those discerning their futures, and others contemplating separation or divorce

Are you struggling with mental health symptoms - anxiety, depression, relationship or family issues, intrusive thoughts, isolation, loneliness, grief or general "stress"? The discomfort may be the result of a short-term situational experience. Or it could be something you have struggled with for years. Counseling or psychotherapy can help you reduce or eliminate the discomfort you are experiencing. Just as people at times experience uncomfortable physical health symptoms, they can also experience uncomfortable mental health symptoms. The good news is, you can regain control over your emotions, your thoughts and your life!

I deeply respect your wanting to address something in your life that keeps you from feeling happy and whole. Maybe it's a recent event or loss, or a troubled relationship, or maybe a past pain that continues to hurt. Perhaps you are feeling a lack of purpose, or a lack of connection with who you really are. The role of a pastoral counselor is to be a compassionate listener and guide - someone who can sit with you as you explore a deeper self-understanding, reflect back to you your insights, discuss options and goals, then assist you in designing an effective path of healing and change. I am honored to offer you my support.

Trying to overcome grief and the oppression of our current systems is exhausting. Being in relationship with others in a shifting world can be scary. If you're wanting to find relief from bearing the weight of it all, I hope to help carry it. I work from a trauma-informed, sex-positive, anti-oppressive stance and hope to create an environment of warmth, connection, and curiosity. I aim to honor the ways in which larger social structures shape our experience of day-to-day life and offer a space where you can be heard, understood, and uplifted. I will work to hold space for the complexities of your life and the grief we all experience

Life comes with many challenges and obstacles that may seem impossible to overcome. We all have an innate need to succeed and prove ourselves as worthy and deserving of good. There may be times when we feel overwhelmed, self-conscious, or inadequate and we don't want to be a burden to others, so we don't ask for help. It's at these times when we need that support most. The truth is, we all face these challenges and with some self-reflection, mental energy, and focus, we can overcome those barriers and develop skills to help ourselves that become second nature.

As we grow into ourselves, and life changes, we can begin to notice gaps in our story... We can begin to reflect on how we are shaped by our families, our childhood, our own temperament and our experiences in adulthood. Are we living in line with our goals, beliefs, and values? Do we have a strong sense of identity? Do we have quality relationships in our lives? Starting a family is one of life's greatest periods of reflection, adaptation and role change. It is not one cohesive story that is the same for everyone. There are times we need help navigating and adapting to this part of our life story.

People choose therapy for many reasons such as relationship problems, stress connected to life transitions or feeling stuck or dissatisfied with life circumstances. As a licensed therapist I believe that no one should have to endure pain and suffering alone. Therapy can lead to evolution and growth in all areas of life such as improved self esteem and relationships with others. My style is collaborative and my clients like the fact that I do more than just listen. I raise questions, get them thinking, make suggestions, and engage actively.

In our work together, I like to gently and respectfully challenge your existing perspectives to help support a new way of viewing the world and yourself. You don’t have to be in crisis to support your mental health. Even if you’re not actively struggling with a major conflict, you can still reach out for support. Your life is worth your attention.

My ideal client is an individual or couple motivated to make a change. Their issues can range from struggling to manage their day-to-day lives to struggling to handle emotional reactions. They would need someone who can gently call things out while providing coping skills or tools. My ideal client would want to make an effort to show up consistently. Showing up consistently is not just attending sessions but also putting in work outside of sessions. With consistency, there's more progress. If the client needs some time to warm up, we can work with that, too.

Currently accepting new clients! My job as a therapist is to help you explore yourself and decide what you want to do with that information. Life can be challenging and sometimes we find ourselves in somewhat of a cycle wondering 'why does this keep happening?' I invite you to take control of your situation and find the courage to move in a new direction. This journey can lead you to resolution and growth as you incorporate what you learn in therapy to your everyday life.
