I believe there is strength to be found in our weaknesses, love to be found through our pain, and light after our darkest days. The pain of healing comes with the self-awareness that otherwise may be over looked. When it becomes more painful to stay in our past then it is scary to step out of it is when the journey begins. I walk beside my clients, not in-front or behind. I remain steady and follow their lead. I provide the safety and hope that everyone needs to face their pain, to feel their pain, and to keep going anyway.

It’s time consuming to sort through profiles; and for that I am so glad you’ve found your way here. I can be there to support you where you’re at right now. Therapy can feel overwhelming; maybe you've asked- where do I start? That is super common! Therapy is more than talking; it’s a safe, healing space filled with both laughter and tears. It’s all welcome and all part of the process. I enjoy working with individuals who may be navigating difficult relationships—whether that be family, romantic or something else! Navigating conflict or life transitions can be tough on our own; at times we just need a little extra support.

In the last few years, we have all had to manage our lives in addition to the added stress and anxiety brought upon by the COVID-19 pandemic. From my 10 years of experience working in residential, outpatient therapy clinics, and lastly, nursing homes during COVID-19, it became clear to me that this pandemic was going to lead to an additional crisis. A mental health crisis. So many have felt the need to be strong and carry on and now that we are moving forward, the mental health toll remains. I started this telehealth private practice in order to provide psychotherapy services to all those who need it and to provide easy access.

Asking for help is one of the strongest things you can do; but it can also be one of the hardest because of past experience of not being heard, believed, or supported. Extreme stressors &traumatic events-including grief/loss affect every aspect of our lives &can make relationships w/family & friends very challenging. The impact of these events can make us feel isolated, misunderstood,& unsupported. They can also lead us to make choices we are not proud of & limit our enjoyment of life in general. I specialize in anxiety/depression/life transitions/complex trauma/relationship issues/grief/sex therapy/pelvic floor dysfunction.
