Regardless of the challenges you face, I believe you are the expert on you. My role is a supportive one as you identify your needs and work through complicated emotions and life experiences. Our work together is a partnership with shared aims: fewer unwanted emotions and behaviors, and a greater ability to respond to stressors. Whether you experience anxiety, grief, trauma, or interpersonal challenges, I am mindful of the vital influence of one's environment, culture, family system, and identity.

Things have been hard. Emotions and divisions are high among couples, families, communities and social interaction has decreased in a big way. So much has changed and much of it beyond our control. Now is the time to unlock inherent coping skills you may not know you possess. I am available to help you identify and develop these skills then learn to incorporate new, proven strategies that help people cope with a quickly changing environment. In my sessions, we’ll look at the changes affecting you. We’ll navigate them together so, on the other side, you come out a stronger, healthier person.

You may feel pulled in many directions such as career, relationships, and family. I can help you clarify your goals and priorities. I also enjoy supporting women and couples during pregnancy and the early stages of parenthood, helping sort through what they feel they "should" be feeling/doing versus their reality.

I am always curious about what brings clients into psychotherapy at a particular juncture of their lives and what they are hoping to be different as a result of conversations with someone like me. Once the responses to this curiosity are articulated and there is a clear purpose and direction for therapy, I listen for what a client already knows and what the client strengths and personal resources currently are and what they have been in the past. This becomes the context for conversations which have the possibility of leading toward preferred changes in the client's life and in its direction.

Working through difficult experiences and emotions can be challenging. It can be even harder to make desired changes in ones life when certain patterns have been established for so long. I work hard to ensure that my clients feel safe and supported throughout this process. By creating a comfortable and lighthearted environment, individuals, families, and couples are able to gain some reprieve from the difficulties they are experiencing. This allows change to begin to occur in the lives of my clients.

I'm here to help and we will figure it out together. If you're in a tough spot, please know that where you're at right now isn't where you're always going to be.
