You might be feeling anxious, burned out, or unsure of how to move forward. Maybe life feels heavier than it used to, or you’re ready to work through past experiences that still affect you.

My ideal client may come to therapy for anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, relationship or work issues. For example, they may have social anxiety and want to learn coping skills. They might want to broaden their social support, and improve their self-esteem. Their goals might be to learn relaxation techniques to reduce stress. A long-term goal might be to better understand where their anxiety came from in the first place. They would be interactive and willing to take action toward their goals, viewing me as a helper rather than a fixer.

I am now a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and believe strongly in the changes and possibilities that therapy can help to foster in my clients' lives. I feel comfortable treating a range of concerns, but have a particular interest in the experiences of those who struggle with depression, isolation, and self-esteem.

If you are feeling anxious, overwhelmed or unhappy in your life or relationships, I can help. Anxiety can be rooted in earlier hurts and a need to protect yourself from possible repetition of these past emotional injuries. If it is hard to say “no” to people in your life, you can quickly feel overwhelmed – especially if self-care is on the back burner. Some anxiety may also be related to current events in the world, which we can address with brief tools. As a guide for you on your journey, I will bring my experience and training to light your path to healing, regardless of the cause(s) or root of these challenges.
