You can feel that stress welling up in the pit of your stomach again, creeping up the back of your throat. The pressure building. Anxiety.....You crack open an eye, peer around the room, your entire body feels heavy and even lifting your head off of your pillow feels hard to do. Depression..."Never good enough" "Too much" "Can't say that" "I should have" "I can't be that"...so much doubt. So many words scanning behind your eyes as nothing comes out of your mouth. Trapped behind your own mind. Does any of this sound like you? Hey, we've all been there to some capacity, right? Struggle. I might be the right fit to help navigate it!
I use a collaborative relationship with clients with the use of humor and a down-to-earth approach with clients. With empathy and compassion, I work to meet clients where they are at. I am empowered to guiding clients in healing, growth and moving them toward falling in love with themselves and their lives.
Are you ready to start to understand and address those nagging themes that keep popping up in your life? Feeling scared, or wishing it was less sterile or natural? I work to keep things comfortable and inviting. Come pull up some couch, bring your drink, and let's chat. Reach out via phone, email, whichever is more comfortable, and let's get you started!

Each session of therapy is tailored to my client. I do not hover with one modality or another. I come to session prepared with all of my tools and use them as they relate to what a client brings to session. I'm humanistic and person-centered in nature, because we are all unique and needs can change. My goal is for clients to learn to love themselves again, back before life taught them not to.
