Many people come to counseling feeling stuck in certain behaviors, relational patterns, or emotional cycles, perhaps without even understanding why, or without hope of lasting change. My desire is to journey with you toward emotional, mental, spiritual, and relational wholeness. You may be facing a broken relationship, suffering from disordered eating or body image concerns, have a history of sexual abuse or trauma, be living with or recovering from a serious illness, or be experiencing depression or anxiety. There is hope!

Trying to figure out how the puzzle pieces of life fit together is not easy. Relationships can be a beast. I will work with you to identify what’s most important to you while crystallizing your relationship goals in a manner that empowers you to incorporate actual skills into your everyday life and relationship. For example, improving communication, exploring intimacy, and the art of letting go of past traumas can allow you to discover what works for your unique relationship. Embrace the healing process, learn to set healthy boundaries, and communicate from a place of love.

Making the decision to reach out for counseling can be a scary step to take, but it is often times the first step towards a healthy and happy life. You could be struggeling with a broken relationship, life stressors, loss/grief, depression, anxiety, or perhaps you can't describe how you feel, but you know it's just not "right". As a counselor, my goal is to provide a safe and warm environment for you to share your story with me, to work together to set goals, and to set off on a path towards healing and wholeness.

Are you having a hard time finding joy in your life? As human beings we all face different challenges that may lead us to seek growth and healing. Therapy is a place where you learn to grieve, take an honest look at your relationship, evaluate your feelings with work and those around you. My goal as a therapist is to help you accomplish your goals, process trauma, practice compassion towards yourself and others, live free, and understand yourself and those around you.

Do you long for increased understanding, improved communication, and deeper connection with your partner? Are you arguing more and enjoying each other less? Is the romance gone? Are you concerned about your child's mood or behavior? Does he/she seem anxious or depressed? Are you worried that you may repeat destructive patterns from your childhood? Would you like to improve communication with your child? Or, are you interested in working through your own individual unresolved issues or situational problems? Would you like to learn healthier coping skills, let go of self-defeating patterns, and move toward your full potential?

“To be human is to need others, and this is no flaw or weakness.” –Dr. Sue Johnson. I believe we all have unique and complex stories that revolve around the important relationships in our lives. Unraveling these stories can often feel overwhelming, so I aim to create a calm and accepting atmosphere to help you feel safe identifying and addressing your concerns, as well as cultivating your strengths. Our work together could be brief and focus on a few distinct issues, or it could be longer-term and focus on processing deeper concerns.

"Everything you've ever wanted is on the other side of fear." ~ [George Addair] It's easy to continue doing what you've always done, but seeking help during a challenging time takes courage. I understand the feelings of discomfort and anxiety that may accompany your first visit with a therapist. I do my best to create an atmosphere that puts you at ease. My office may remind you of your living room and your experience will be judgement free.

Seeking counseling is a brave decision that could be the first step towards living a happier, more fulfilling life. I work with couples who are dissatisfied with the quality of their relationship due to issues such as unresolvable conflicts, infidelity, complicated family dynamics, incompatibility, substance use, etc. I also see high school/ college students or young adults (Gen-Z and millennials) experiencing difficult life transitions, relationship issues, loneliness, issues of faith or spirituality, complicated family dynamics, etc. Whatever brings you here, I hope you find the hope and healing your soul desires.

My approach to therapy is one of commitment and collaboration. By building a collaborative relationship with clients through genuine acceptance, empathy, and support, the foundation for change is established. It is my goal to help clients live more authentic lives by finding balance, resolving conflicts, and finding courage to take personal risks!

I serve people seeking to grow. At any stage, frustration or pain typically signals this growth, and many of us have been hurt. Often in psychotherapy, growth involves vulnerability, learning and healing. As a humanist, with an experiential approach, I offer nurturing, integrative psychotherapy to adults. Personality, relationship, mood, and body are special areas of experience and interest. Though this process takes many directions, I enjoy joining my clients' exploration inward, accompanying them in insight. I am excited by their discovery, reclaiming, and application of self to live in an authentically meaningful, harmonious way.

Congratulations. You are obviously closer to creating change and healing in your life. So often our depression, anxiety, and relationship problems are correlated to underlying shame and emotional wounds that have become entrenched in our beliefs, attitudes, behaviors, and personality styles. As you well know, this healing process can frequently be arduous and frustrating, but I look forward to working with you to develop a meaningful therapy relationship and experience.

The positive benefits of a therapeutic relationship include self-understanding and self-acceptance, emotional balance, resolution of past hurts, freedom from guilt and shame, empathy, healthy dependency, contentment, a sense of wholeness, and empowerment to give and receive love deeply. I have the training and experience to help people achieve these benefits and in the process overcome roadblocks like depression or anxiety​, negative self-talk, grief and loss, destructive relationship patterns, marital distress, sexual struggles, and various types of trauma.

You feel disconnected and alone. Even in your most trusted relationship with your partner or spouse, you feel like there’s a separation between the two of you. You keep having the same fights or discussions over and over again, repeating the same pattern. Communicating with your partner doesn’t seem to be working. Everything you say seems to be the wrong thing. You feel hurt, angry, and scared that the pain and loneliness that you’re going through will never get better. You want to feel trust and security in your relationship. You want more than anything to feel connected again.

I AM accepting new clients! Let’s face it, asking for help can be one of the most difficult things to do. It might seem easier to search online and try to figure things out by yourself. Looking things up online is convenient, but the value of person-to-person communication with a professional who applies evidenced-based care in a safe and supportive setting is irreplaceable. I assist with life challenges such as anxiety/stress, trauma recovery/PTSD, relationship issues, communication issues, conflict management, adjustment issues, spirituality, transitions into new phases of life, and managing mental health symptoms in general.

Providing a safe environment to support authenticity and wholeness is the crux of the therapeutic alliance. Adding fun and adventure in the process makes it a worthwhile journey!

Do you want to live a balanced life and feel happy? Perhaps you are constantly facing obstacles and challenges in your life that are impacting your holistic wellness and authentic relationships. The anxiety and depression can be detrimental. I can help you, guide you, and support you as you process various issues related to your cultural/sexual identity, anxiety related to transitions and relationships, grief, trauma, depression, etc. I can help you gain a deeper insight and self-awareness that will allow you to get closer to your goals, make better decisions, and have a better quality of life in a holistic manner using mindfulness.

Hello, I am so glad you are here! I work with individuals from 15 years of age and up who are struggling with adjusting to life changes, stress, worry, anxiety, self-esteem, depression and isolation, and healing from trauma. Seeking a therapist is the hardest part of your mental health journey. You should take pride in taking this first step! It can be difficult to open up to someone new but can lead to some much-needed mental and emotional relief. We are not created to go through life keeping things inside and going about our days as if everything is 100% okay. I hope to help you find emotional healing!
