"You've been trying to find your way back to your old self again, but are struggling and stuck. Something has to change. For some reason, it seems impossible to do things well enough at work or at school or at home with your family, maybe even with a new baby. You're feeling disconnected and worried about letting people down. It's gotten really hard to keep up. Being stretched so thin and constantly fighting to tread water is taking its toll on your patience, too. Every little thing is irritating. It feels so hopeless to not be able to just pull it together and be more like everyone else around you, especially if you're a new mom."

"I like to think of therapy as the search for balance in one's life. For many, it begins with seeking greater understanding about one's concerns and situation. With that understanding, a new narrative of life's experiences and meaning can be found. The understanding is the first part of change; the rest (which may sometimes be the longer part) is a process of working with self-compassion towards that balance. Although my undergraduate education was in Creative Writing and Fine Arts at the University of Michigan, the most creative process I've encountered has been psychotherapy."

"Choosing to engage in therapy can be an overwhelming and intimidating experience and I am here to support you through this decision to get help and move forward.

Ultimately, we all want to feel better and live more productive lives. I believe that therapy is a collaborative endeavor which takes place in an open and non-judgmental environment. My role is to help clients gain a deeper understanding of themselves, what motivates their behaviors and how they can bring about the desired changes."

"Choosing to talk to a professional is a big decision. You may have been thinking about it for months or even years.

"As a clinical psychotherapist in practice for almost 20 years, I understand how hard the first step can be in reaching out for help. I strive to provide a safe, comfortable and trusting environment to explore those issues that perhaps are leaving you feeling stuck, depressed, anxious and/or confused. I work with patients who are suffering from depression, life transition issues, relationship issues, fertility and parenting issues. I value your early life experiences and help you make connections on if/how they make impact your current life choices and relationships."

"My approach to therapy is to create a safe space where you can explore and heal the difficult and painful issues that are showing up in your life. Together we will move beyond problem-solving into releasing the deeply held mistaken beliefs and core unresolved issues behind your symptoms. My body-centered and somatic approach allows me to work directly with your nervous system to address symptoms like anxiety, racing thoughts, and irrational fears as well as feeling stuck, depressed and unavailable or unresponsive to life and relationships."

"You’ve been feeling overwhelmed for some time. Your thoughts just feel out of control and disruptive to your life. Sometimes you feel defeated and unmotivated because everyday tasks seem like too much to handle. You have started to wonder if it will ever get better. You can recognize that there are factors in your past that have probably contributed to the way you feel now. Or maybe this just came completely out of the blue for you. Either way, you are struggling to make sense of it. You know that this isn’t the way you want to feel and you’re done trying to figure out how to make it better on your own."

"Throughout life, we are faced with many challenges...some more severe than others, some harder to overcome, and some which we ignore for the moment. When we choose not to face our challenges, it can negatively impact our true being. My experience includes working with those struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, grief and loss, substance abuse, trauma, parent-child relationships, crisis intervention, just to name a few."

"Sometime we all feel unhappy, stressed, confused, or "stuck." Talking to an empathic and experienced therapist may be your first step toward developing new insights about positive change. My therapeutic approach is to encourage you to talk about your concerns openly in a confidential and safe environment where you will not be judged. A major benefit of therapy is to provide you with a second point-of-view on your personal material--a perspective other than your own. This process provides you with new ways to think about your choices and behaviors, and frees you to achieve your goals."

"Difficult times in life are opportunities for growth and change. I specialize in exploring identity, relationships, and transitions, mindful of the interplay between our formative experiences and current ways of being in the world.

I facilitate my clients' innate movement toward healing and authenticity."

"Welcome! I am a trauma therapist and what that means is that while I work with many clients coming in for a variety of reasons that I always work from a trauma-conscious place - understanding that big or small we all have things that have harmed us on our own life's path. I work across a diversity of trauma related issues and integrating a variety of techniques which engage the mind, body and spirit (as is useful). Some of my areas of specialization are spiritual & religious trauma, social justice and movement trauma, racial and intergenerational trauma, and military/veteran trauma (combat and military sexual trauma). "

"Does it sometimes feel like you are not living the life you thought that you would? Or that you could be more content with your situation?

I am happy to work together with you to better understand your past while also finding new ways of moving forward in a meaningful way."
