Beaucoup de mes clients ont vécu beaucoup de détresse émotionnelle, des problèmes relationnels qu’ils jugent insurmontables, des problèmes d’estime de soi, de confiance et d’intimité. Ils cherchent à changer, à briser les cycles. Ils se sentent épuisés, Je suis là pour vous aider.

En tant que clinicien orienté vers les résultats, j’accueille les clients de tous les ages pour la thérapie individuelle ainsi que couple. Ma spécialisation est travailler avec des clients confrontés à des traumatismes, deuil et perte, l’infertilité, problèmes relationnels, l’estime de soi, humeur et motivation. Mon approche de psychothérapie est basée sur la perspicacité intégrée à d’autres méthodes pour répondre aux besoins et aux objectifs uniques de mes clients. Mes intérêts s’étendent à la psychologie familiale, soutenant les clients lors de séparation et divorce ainsi que la réunification thérapeutique parent-enfant.

Chaque personne est unique et j'intègre diverses approches fondées sur des données probantes et tenant compte des traumatismes pour répondre aux préoccupations actuelles.

Je pense que chaque personne a besoin d'aimer ou de se sentir aimée au plus profond d'elle-même. Lorsque ces besoins sont satisfaits, nous pouvons recevoir et partager de l'affection de la part de notre entourage, et faire partie d'une communauté. Les patients qui viennent généralement me consulter ont fait face à des obstacles dans leurs relations amoureuses, leurs relations sociales, leurs relations familiales, leurs relations au travail, leurs rapports aux collectivités et/ou leurs relations avec eux-mêmes. Lorsque je travaille avec mes patients, je les invite à examiner leurs besoins.

La thérapie nous rend vulnerable et peut être difficile. C’est pour ça que je m’engage a créer un environment comfortable qui est à votre disposition. Je travaille avec vous pour adapter votre thérapie a vos besoins et pour atteindre vos buts. Je me base sur les principes de la thérapie cognitivo-comportementale qui éclaire les liens entre nos pensées et nos émotions pour comprendre leurs influences sur nos actions. J’apporte aussi une attention aux événements socioculturels qui nous influencent et nous forment chaque jour.

Life has probably provided many challenges this past year, and has produced far more questions than you can find answers for. My goal in our work together will be to help you search for the solutions that can increase your self-esteem, decrease your anxieties as well as develop a better insight into your life. In our work together, your strengths will be our focus, and in a non-judgmental environment we will address the most intimate or overwhelming issues impacting you and/or your relationships through a mind/body approach.

I work with teenagers, adults and relationships struggling with communication and self-esteem. I want to help anyone dealing with issues surrounding self-worth, communication, sex and intimacy, life transitions, abortion processing, depression and anxiety, and the perinatal/postpartum period to understand that they are not alone. I consider myself a relational therapist and work with any and all relationships! This includes but is not limited to couples, spouses, friendships, adult siblings, open relationships, and polyamorous relationships.

Have you struggled with managing constant stress or coping with symptoms of depression, anxiety, mood swings, or low self-esteem? Have you struggled to cope with difficult situations and/or relationships recently? Have you felt as if you no longer have control over the struggles and need someone to help you see the light at the end of the tunnel? These moments can feel painful and unbearable, especially when they seem to last forever. Escaping or avoiding the pain and/or struggles by engaging in maladaptive behaviors seems easier. Seeking help will help you manage these symptoms and distress more effectively.

A Warm Welcome! In life, we face relationship difficulties, seasons of adjustments, anxiety, and stress. We can struggle with the devastation of trauma, grief and loss, sexual problems, low self-esteem, depression, and addictions which impact every aspect of our lives. I believe that you don't have to be alone in your journey and that counseling can move individuals toward hope and healing while promoting growth, insights, tools, and purpose. I view counseling as a privilege, an honor, and a partnership between the individual and the therapist.

Issues of self-esteem and self-worth are core to my practice. I also focus on identity work, trauma, and relationship with self and others. My work includes the exploration of my clients’ values and what is truly important to them, which leads to a meaningful and satisfying life. While warm and empathic, my therapeutic style also includes direct feedback and guidance to give you practical tools that will empower you to face the world despite your struggles.

Our team consists of clinical social workers, psychologists, PhDs, marriage/family therapists, certified perinatal mental health clinicians, and a psychiatric nurse practitioner.

My ideal client is any human struggling with the present moment, any human suffering.

Therapy transformed my life when I was referred to a counselor years ago as a teen. Since then, I have wanted to provide this type of support and to serve as a guide for others through difficult times in life. I aspire to help my clients tap into their own inner strengths, so they can ultimately live more freely, fully and authentically. I take a client-centered approach, and help my clients identify their own goals for themselves.

As an agency we have been supporting people via online sessions, with everything that falls “outside the box”. If you are encountering relationship problems, you may have found that it is easier to procrastinate rather than to seek the relationship advice and tools that you need. You may have even been waiting to seek consulting or coaching services for years. Meanwhile your relationship difficulties have only been getting worse. Our consulting services are designed to help you communicate better and make sustainable changes that will benefit you and your family throughout your lives to come back to loving one another.

I believe that, given adequate time, space, and resources, all individuals are capable of self-directed change regardless of their presenting problem. I also believe that therapy can often be the missing factor for those who seek but are unable to successfully make positive life changes on our own. As a counselor, I facilitate change by working with and through the client. As client and counselor, we work together, as a team, to best meet the client’s needs by setting, and then pursuing, realistic, attainable treatment goals.

Are you feeling overwhelmed? Are suffering from anxiety, depression or PTSD? Are you ready to make a positive change in your life? What change would you like to see happen in yourself and your life and how would you feel different as a result? Life can sometimes feel overwhelming and counseling can help. We can discover long-standing patterns that may be holding you back from experiencing a more meaningful life. Whether you are looking for extra support and guidance through a difficult situation or you are just ready to move to a new direction in life, I look forward to working with you.
