Much of my clinical experience has been working with individuals and families impacted by challenging life events, whether it be a one-time problematic experience or generational. Sometimes there isn't an identified traumatic event or 'reason' one might be experiencing unwanted emotions and or behaviors. Many folks are simply seeking a therapist that will collaboratively work with them to improve overall well-being while learning to recognize and further develop their strengths. I help clients understand why they do what they do, while learning and improving skills, healthy reasoning, and adaptability.

Facing the challenges of daily living can be overwhelming. I can help you get back on track in as little as 4 sessions. I'm a doctoral level licensed clinical social worker with over 15 years of experience helping people overcome these challenges.

I also emphasize the importance of self-compassion and self-acceptance in the healing process. I understand that therapy can be daunting, but I'm here to create a safe and supportive space where you can grow.

My passion and purpose is to assist people in finding peace and healing in a way that is painless. I have observed that the imprints of some experiences have been continuing to cause pain, emotional unrest, and have been affecting how the person interacts with themselves, their loved ones, and the world. I earnestly believe that NOTHING is wrong with YOU! The problem has been with the way the mind has been processing information and through the use of Rapid Resolution Therapy we can make a significant difference in how you have been thinking, feeling, acting, and reacting.

For each of us, for better or worse the past follows into our future. We enjoy comforting memories of nurturing loved ones, and the resiliance that is the gift of a coach saying it's ok, just dust off and try again. Even those of us with the best of lives have experiences that haunt, too. Hurtful comments become sources of shame and guilt. Betrayals become inability to trust. Failed efforts turn to procrastination and avoidance. Grief, grudges, worries and feelings of overwhelm are normal experiences too. When old stories seep into your present robbing you of the joy you desire, it's time to talk.

If you’re marginalized in any way, you’re familiar with feeling pushed to blend in or to live a life that just doesn’t fit. Right now, you might feel like you’re living on an island. But even islands are connected through the seabed, which means there’s no place too far to come back from. Together, we can rebuild those connecting threads to others and to the authentic self already within you.

Life often presents us with different challenges. Some are the result of situations that we had no control over or were forced on us while others may be the result of personal choices that were made. It does not matter where these challenges originated from, the challenge now is to find an effective method of coping with them going forward. I look forward to working with you to explore the choices you have in facing and handling these difficult challenges.
