Many of us will experience anxiety, depression, or trauma in our lifetime. We tend to carry these experiences silently and heavily weighed down by them, often leaving us feeling hopeless, exhausted, isolated, and unhappy. For some, they can also lead to significant mental health issues and unhelpful coping strategies. This pain is significant. Your suffering is real. And, if you're reading this, you've probably tried everything to fix it. You may have believed that nothing could change or get better. I am here to help you challenge those beliefs and provide you with a set of skills to help you cope with your distress.

I believe that, as mental health practitioners, we are indeed midwives of a paradigm shift. Whether a client is new to counseling or looking to continue care, I welcome the opportunity to assist others in making mental health a priority in their life as we work to develop the appropriate positive coping skillset to best tend to one's emotional well-being and unique circumstances. While life may offer a myriad of obstacles to overcome, the working therapeutic alliance along with commitment to the goals and objectives established in treatment can provide a means of navigating these difficulties with greater ease and overall autonomy.

Through both my personal and professional growth I came to understand of the potential healing power that existed in me, that stems from the raising of my own consciousness. From this place I am able to see the larger whole of whatever I am looking at. This allows me to come up with more effective tools to work through situations I might have seen unresolvable in the past. I am also able to create that which I have dreamt of. We all have this potential healing power within and I would like to assist you in reconnecting with it.

Life has many challenges, and we live in a world that tends to make us feel abnormal if we aren't happy all of the time. Psychotherapy provides an opportunity to heal and accept ourselves. Maybe you are feeling out of balance with the pressures of work and/ or personal relationships. Maybe anxiety and stress are causing you to lose sleep, feel depressed and/or to act out with excessive behaviors such as drinking too much or overeating. Maybe you can't control or stop a behavior that causes you shame or regret.

Taking the initial steps to begin psychotherapy can be intimidating but the process of therapy has the potential to transform your life. Survival skills that may have helped us in the past may have become an obstacle to thriving in the present. This may contribute to feeling stuck in painful relationships, unrewarding jobs and struggling with depression and anxiety. I treat a wide range of concerns and problems including relationship and family of origin issues. My specialties include relational trauma grief and loss, anxiety and depression, LGBT issues, adult adoptees, domestic violence. Additionally, I have experience and enjoy working with artists.

There are many different reasons to seek treatment including the obvious ones-depression, anxiety, a life crisis, loss of loved one, work issues & so on. For other individuals, it may be less clear-cut--maybe you seek to better understand yourself, change your relationship patterns or learn new ways of dealing with situations without repeating self-destructive behaviors. Or maybe you are struggling with a difficult pregnancy or loss of one or the life-changing world of becoming a mother and “baby blues” that don’t seem to go away.

**EMAIL IS BEST* You and I will work together to face the challenges you may have. As a Social Worker & Certified Life Coach, I am committed to helping you find your strength and motivation so you can accomplish your goals. I adapt my work method to meet the needs for each of my patients. Together we will make changes and work to achieve a less anxious life. Everyone feels anxious at times. Worrying can be helpful when it spurs you to take action and solve a problem. But if you're preoccupied with "what ifs" and worst-case scenarios, worry becomes a problem. Anxiety and constant worry maybe holding you back from your goals.
