Welcome to Talk Therapy. Speaking with an objective therapist helps people through pain, provides insight, and encourages hope! The human condition may result in unexpected life changes, relationship issues, sadness, loneliness, fear, et.al. Sometimes, it is how one is personally "wired" that causes stress and problems. I want to provide you support and foster growth, understanding, and positive coping. My experience is working with individuals, groups, adolescents, those in treatment, and the incarcerated. I am Brainspotting certified to address the lingering affects of trauma on current functioning.

Your child is struggling. You want to be able to fix it, but after months, you are at your wit's end. The embarrassing tantrums are out of hand. Maybe you’ve gotten calls from their school. It's clear to you that they are acting out because they are anxious, have trouble with social connections, or aren't getting enough sleep. You’ve tried countless things and different approaches but still see no progress. No book or podcast can tell you how to coach them through their troubles. Watching your child struggle breaks your heart because you don’t know how to provide them with relief. You feel hopeless.

When dealing with unexpected change, it can be difficult to cope and continue living life positively. Anxiety and depression are only a few of the emotions that someone can experience after a major life transition. I believe that it is important to find your strengths to work to process feelings that lie under the surface. Every person is different and adapting treatment to fit the client's needs is most important. I hope to work with clients who are having difficulties with change and processing emotions. This would include, but inot limited to, individuals with anxiety and depression, trauma, mood disorders, and somatic disorders.

Often when we encounter problems in life, we look for external solutions. Many of the obstacles that keep us from feeling better are internal wounds or patterns that once kept us safe. My goal is to help you shift patterns and heal wounds through the four pillars of mental health: self-knowledge, self-compassion, self-acceptance, and self-love. I believe all people have the innate capacity to heal themselves. I am a dedicated collaborator here to listen with curiosity and empathy and help you uncover your most content, authentic self.

Do you feel suffocated by others’ expectations, afraid or unsure of how to ask for help, overwhelmed with commitments, unable to take a break, like you’re just trying to survive the day? Maybe you’re fed up with struggling at school/work, getting so easily overwhelmed, and having suicidal thoughts. You might not even remember a time when things didn’t feel this way. One thing is for sure though. You’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to make sense of what’s happening to you and take back control. Most of all, you’re ready to regain balance in your life so you can finally breathe easy again.
