“Growth is painful. Change is painful. But nothing is as painful as staying stuck where you do not belong.” (Mandy Hale) Sometimes the path in life looks different from what was imagined or planned. This can cause anxiety, depression, loss of direction, overwhelming sensations, trauma/PTSD, compulsions, and various forms of grief. You do not have to navigate growth and change alone. Together we can create a safe and comfortable place where you can heal from pain and discover a bright path ahead.

We have all felt a lack of connection at some time, whether it is lack of connection with others or lack of connection with ourselves. It is common for this feeling to become more profound at specific times or due to certain experiences.

My focus is in helping clients to develop a stronger sense of connection toward the goal of finding a new sense of meaning, acceptance, and fulfillment.

I believe a trusting relationship between counselor and client is important.

Seeing a therapist doesn’t mean there is something wrong with you. It means that you may be seeking clarity in some areas in your life, or wanting to work through complex emotions. It may mean you are working through a traumatic experience or challenging negative thinking patterns.

Whatever the reason you are considering therapy, I can help you increase your understanding of your thoughts, feelings and behaviors and explore areas in your life that you would like to improve in a compassionate and empathic space.
