Do you continue to struggle with anxiety, mood, or self-defeating behaviors that get in the way of feeling good about yourself and sabotaging your potential? You are not alone. Many people silently suffer from addictive eating and alcohol consumption, anger, social anxiety, difficulties with focus, decision-making, and
relationship
problems. There is hope! You can break these frustrating and painful cycles of repetition, even if you have tried to change for many years. Quality skills-based counseling and coaching can help.

Welcome! Typically, I work with clients who are struggling with traditional behavioral health concerns such as anxiety, depression/grief, stress,
relationship
concerns & life transitions. As a trained health psychologist, I also work with clients who are struggling with issues such as sleep disturbance, high blood pressure/cholesterol, migraine/tension headaches, pain & newly diagnosed illness. For some, there is an intersection between physical & emotional health. When this is the case, I welcome collaboration with any treating specialists. I find that clients are best served when providers work together for your benefit.

For most of us, our time and resources are limited. Considering this reality, my work with clients is designed to maximize the benefits of therapy. This is accomplished via in-office or tele-therapy (secure on line video) sessions in which we establish specific goals focused on each individual's needs. I provide clients with a safe, caring
relationship
in which I listen, understand and offer effective interventions. I have guided clients through difficult circumstances, including divorce, loss,
relationship
conflicts, parenting issues and chronic illness. Our work together focuses on developing a range of skills to manage these circumstances.

I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) experienced in working with individuals suffering from depression, anxiety, grief/loss, trauma,
relationship
issues, life change, and coping with environmental stress.
I will work with you to resolve areas where you may feel misunderstood, confused, or stuck. Studies have shown that we are able to change throughout our lifespan. This means we do not have to be stuck living the same way forever. My approach is psychodynamic psychotherapy where two people work together to understand what is contributing to one’s suffering and to find a path forward, toward recovery. I enjoy working with adults and adolescents looking for a change and a way to experience happiness in life.

The foundation to a successful therapeutic experience is the client and counselor
relationship
.
You have been told you are too sensitive and were constantly invalidated for how you feel. People in your life have made you feel unworthy or less than your value. You're a feeler and feeler’s care, deeply. Your emotions have felt too overwhelming to acknowledge, so you try to ignore them, but they spill over into your daily life. You become triggered and have difficulty managing those emotions when they come to the surface. If you are feeling the ripple effects of past trauma or experience intense emotions such as shame, sadness, low self-esteem, anger, or anxiety, I know how to help!

I draw on research-based techniques to work with individuals (age 18+) who are experiencing anxiety, depression, stress,
relationship
issues, life transitions, and more.
Sometimes life gets heavy. You can end up feeling unmotivated, overwhelmed, and alone. When you feel anxious or depressed, you want relief. I can understand and support you. I want you to know it can get better! Working together can be the start of living the life you want. My goal is to get to know you (or you and your
partner
), provide compassion, and a safe space where we can work together to reach your goals. Reaching out is the beginning of your path to well-being.

Couples Counseling Therapists
Does couples counseling work?
Research shows that couples counseling is effective; it can reduce relationship distress and improve emotional awareness, communication, empathy, intimacy, and overall relationship satisfaction. For example, emotionally focused therapy was found to be effective for about 75 percent of couples, and those benefits lasted at least two years.
When should a couple seek counseling?
Couples can benefit from counseling if they consistently struggle in their relationship. They may have lost the ability to communicate effectively, become entrenched in harmful patterns, begun to fight more than usual, broken the other’s trust, suffered from a mental or physical illness, or faced any number of other challenges. Many therapists offer free consultations, so if a couple isn’t sure whether therapy is necessary, asking directly can provide clarity.
How can I get my partner to go to couples therapy?
The decision to seek couples therapy is often driven by one partner, who then convinces the other to participate. When discussing the idea, the initiator should be direct and assertive. They can state the problems they see and explain how the relationship would benefit from therapy. In more serious cases, they can also explain how their relationship may suffer without making any changes or seeking professional help.
How does a couple prepare for couples counseling?
The anticipation of beginning couples counseling can be difficult—sometimes more difficult than the first session itself. Taking a few moments to reflect can allay those concerns: What are the current challenges? When and how did they begin? What do they want the relationship to look like in the future? Reflecting on these questions can help individuals or couples articulate their goals. Of course, the therapist will also ask questions and guide couples through the process.
