"“I hate school. I have no friends. My parents don’t get me. I’m always in trouble. I can’t do anything right. Life just sucks.” Every morning you put on a mask just to get through your day. No one understands what you are going through, and you feel alone in the world. Maybe you can’t remember the last time you truly felt happy or yourself. Or, something bad happened, and your memories continue to hold you captive. You want to feel better, but you’re scared to let someone into the dark places. Parents, you see your child’s pain and all you want for them is to be happy. You want your care-free kid back. "

"It is only human to struggle with life from time to time, and in this shared experience, we are all connected. It is my philosophy as a therapist that people often hold the key to their own healing process, and my role is one of collaboration with clients to promote that change.

I provide an approach that incorporates both coping strategies and skill building, all while providing empathy, support, and an interpersonal relationship focus."

"Welcome! I know if you are looking for a psychologist you may feel a mixture of anxiety and hope. You may have questions about whether therapy actually works or can help you get "unstuck.” Perhaps something terrible happened to you, either recently or a long time ago, and you have tried to forget about it, but find that you can’t. You might feel overly emotional or conversely, unable to feel emotions the way you would like. Therapy can provide a caring environment to process these events. I strive to offer a non-judgmental and compassionate approach while using evidence based therapies that promote practical growth. "

Choosing to ignore your issues tends to make life more difficult and places a strain on your relationships. Through our counseling relationship we will create goals, set the pace and find your path of healing."
