YOU ARE WORTH IT! There is hope. I am passionate about assisting couples/families and individuals with finding peace and working towards positive change. I am an integrative psychotherapist, working from a compassionate, strength-based perspective. The foundation of effective therapy is a strong, connected therapeutic relationship. I believe it is my role as a therapist to approach this alliance with warmth and open-mindedness to help provide you with a safe, nonjudgemental space.

You have within you an amazing ability to transcend pain and fear, even if you haven't yet discovered it. With effort and commitment, you can free that ability to heal wounds and increase resilience. Self-esteem can grow as you better understand why you do what you do. Learning to identify, understand, and manage emotions - including anger and anxiety - allows you to become a better friend to yourself and others. As relationship patterns become clearer, the potential to change them for the better can grow. On my website are reviews by clients and more about my experience and philosophy.

Just as the body has the ability to heal physically, the mind can also heal from psychological trauma. I believe that every single person has a powerful story, and I take pride in providing a safe, calm environment where you are empowered to share, and heal from your story.

As a Therapist, I want to provide my teen and young-adult clients with a safe space to process through challenging experiences, to better understand and explore their emotions, and to empower them to create attainable goals for the future. In therapy sessions, I work to listen, validate, and challenge in order to help clients create better methods of coping and also increase their self-compassion. This typically results in improvements in anxiety, depression, and negative beliefs.

Let's start with the future. You'll not get there if you don't know where you're going. Creating an image of how you'd like things to be instead of how they are will provide a positive focus for therapy. My job as a therapist is to help in creating that image, guide you in moving forward, and assist you in resolving past and current issues that get in the way.

We all need a place to unpack our brokenness, pain and struggle. We desire to have someone listen wholeheartedly to our story.

Are you going through a major life shift or transition? This could be anything to include a new medical diagnosis, chronic health condition, smoking cessation, weight loss surgery, and/or LGBTQ issues. If you are experiencing anxiety, depression, isolation, or fear of the unknown, I teach people how to assert and advocate for themselves. As you confront the issues that are holding you back I will support you and teach you important skills to enable you to take back your life. I believe in providing the tools you will need to become your own advocate.

My approach to life is non-judgmental and open-minded. I enjoy assisting clients to achieve higher goals, be more comfortable with themselves, and connect more in their relationships. Self-acceptance will be more consistent, your past traumas can become stories to tell, you may feel deeper appreciation for relationships, as well as a stronger connection with your family. I work with you gently & efficiently towards your goals & solutions. Unifying conflicting parts of yourself and finding balance in your life creates emotional, mental, and spiritual health. Understanding your emotions allows you to progress in your growth.

Let's be honest, therapy isn't the first choice for most people. If, however, you are in a place where this might seem like a good option, I'd appreciate the opportunity to work with you. Whether it is personal issues or you're having difficulties with your spouse, significant other, parent, or child(ren). Or, maybe you just need some support with a transition in life. I enjoy working with people from all walks and stages of life and while change is up to you, know that I'm willing to be in your corner along the way. In addition to myself, we have a team of 13 other providers ready and wiling to help in any way we can.
