Reaching out is the beginning of your path to well-being.

Anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, relationship problems, infertility, and professional burnout can be very overwhelming and make you feel alone and exhausted.

A safe space to be truly heard, seen and understood. Whether you are grieving, experiencing anxiety, having difficulty in a relationship, or looking for support while going through a life transition, therapy is a place to talk, reflect, cry, and sometimes even laugh.

There are seasons in life when direction from a professional can make a difference; in family relationships, peer relationships and marriage relationships. I believe in empowering people to become the best they can be by understanding from where they came. This awareness of your family of origin brings knowledge, and empowers you to work through the past and move forward to a more fulfilled life. Getting to know you and your concerns is the beginning of a therapeutic relationship which will allow me to assist in fostering your personal goals.

.Are life's pressures wearing you down? Have you lost energy for people or activities you once enjoyed? Are you feeling stuck and unsure of how to change your current life situation? Whether you are struggling with depression, anxiety, a difficult childhood, relationship issues, low self-esteem, or something else, change is possible. Therapy sessions begin with relationship building as you share the concerns that led you to therapy. I want to hear your story and understand the life circumstances that brought you to your current situation. We will then work together to create a plan for therapy that feels right for you.

Are you feeling disconnected or lonely in your relationship? Are you struggling to talk or feel heard by your partner? Do you miss the sexual relationship you used to have or are you struggling to create the sexual relationship you want? All couples go through challenges, but sometimes you end up feeling unseen or there is so much hurt/distrust. I work with couples and individuals to repair, reconnect, and rebuild the relationship by exploring relationship patterns from the families you grew up in, understanding how those patterns impact you individually and in the relationship, and helping you communicate on a deeper level.

I have provided psychotherapeutic services to individual adults for many years.
