I serve individual adults as a CERTIFIED JUNGIAN ANALYST sensitive to injustice and cruelty within one’s society, work setting, family and/or partnership, and especially within one’s own psyche. This covers your concerns about mood, relationships, sex and sexuality, creativity issues, compulsions, coping with change or loss, lack of passion, disorganization, or effects of neglect, abuse or trauma. We would aim at your gaining greater clarity and self-acceptance and living authentically and more fully. We might explore dreams, fantasies and whatever else your soul expresses, applying courage, honesty, humility and imagination.

*MOBILE THERAPY SERVICE* When traditional 'mental health' services are not meeting your needs-CALL. This could be a result from a medical condition, limitations to transportation, or many other reasons that pose a barrier to meeting your emotional support needs in an office. Mobile Therapy is a way to have the service come to you and allow you the ability to mold the service in a way that would be most convenient for you. I view the therapeutic process as a journey, to achieve goals, improve your life for the better and feel that therapy should be catered to your needs.

People thinks you have it together all of the time. Really, you are overwhelmed spending all your energy making it look so. No one would know you are highly stressed, both at work and at home. You take care of everyone else's needs before your own, and while its exhausting, you feel too guilty to put yourself first. You have always succeeded in school and in work because that was what was expected of you. However, you know you are not living your truth. You know it's because you never took the time to figure out what truly fulfills you. As you try to sleep your heart pounds while you criticize yourself for not being good enough.

* Not accepting new clients at this time.* Non-urgent therapy requests may consider being placed on my wait list. Please email with your information. Thank you! Do you often feel that life is overwhelming? Do you want a safe and comfortable space to explore your inner thoughts and feelings? The right therapist can be difficult to find, but this connection is invaluable. I will work with you on specific goals, or simply alleviating stress in your everyday life.

**Currently accepting new clients at Java Street location only** Have you been having trouble finding an open-minded therapist you connect with? Are you going through something that needs attention, and not sure where to seek help? Therapy can help you gain insight into persistent patterns and issues, connect some of the moving parts of your experiences, and guide you toward actualizing your full potential. I provide guidance and support to individuals looking to find answers to problems with relationships, trauma, self-esteem, career stress/burnout, depression/anxiety, and family estrangement.

Acknowledging that you or your child need support is the first step in the therapeutic process. Due to the complex nature of the relationships in your life, it is helpful have a neutral person to offer a listening ear, guidance, and insight through a tough time. My goal is to support you, your child, and/or your family in your process. I can help you in identifying and regulating emotions, stopping negative thoughts, overcoming challenges, strengthening relationships and utilizing healthy coping skills. Together we will work on self-discovery, increased happiness, confidence, healing and resilience.

I believe that change is possible...and necessary to reach our goals for a happier life. I imagine you are ready for a change, either in your circumstances, your emotional state, or in patterns and behaviors that keep you stuck. Everyone needs help in order to identify blind spots and see things from a different perspective. I love working with anyone who is ready to take on the challenge of exploring their difficulties and overcoming obstacles that get in the way of feeling successful and satisfied.

Making the choice to seek and begin therapy is positive and courageous. It's often a valuable step toward resolving the issues that are blocking the pleasure and fulfillment you deserve. Are you feeling depressed or anxious? Poor body image? Do you have concerns about your sexual functioning? Issues with libido? Pain or discomfort with sexual activities? Having relationship difficulties? Struggling with sexual identity, orientation, or gender expression? Any or all of these can impact your overall well being. I aim to support your capacity to grow and change, feel grounded, and to live to your highest possibility!

Life can be very challenging at times and our usual way of managing doesn't work as effectively as it used to. Our coping skills aren't helping us to feel a sense of control and well-being and we end up feeling overwhelmed, stuck, anxious, we can't sleep well, we under eat or overeat, experience mood changes and possible difficulties managing work, relationships and home life. I am committed to helping you understand what you are going through, developing strategies to make changes, assisting you with stress reduction so that you feel more comfortable within yourself and your life.

I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for the past 9 years, working with individuals and couples in a clinical setting, as well as private psychotherapy. I believe that every person can reach their potential, strive towards their goals, heal from their past and obtain happiness by learning how to be present in their lives; while learning how to be insightful about oneself and gain empowerment.

Have the huge life changes induced by the Covid-19 pandemic brought you to the brink of despair? Many patients grapple with employment change or loss and a resulting lack of structure, identify and purpose in life. Others struggle with spending 24 hours a day with their partners and/or children and attempt to console themselves with substances. Older folks and ones with chronic and/or life-threatening disease experience increased isolation and helplessness. We've all lost some of our favorite coping mechanisms! Psychotherapy enables you to reveal a self you may have kept hidden and to cope and change in ways that you desire.

It is easy to become overwhelmed by the sadness, anger, or anxiety we experience. During these times we often feel uncertain and insecure. My goal is to help you find balance and to restore a sense of control and inner strength. I believe it is important to listen and to be supportive as well as to provide guidance as you explore where you have been, where you are and where you hope to go. I believe it is important for you to set realistic and reasonable expectations of yourself as well as others. And to develop the communication skills that will allow you to share your thoughts and feelings in healthy and appropriate ways.

Having trouble finding your "why"? I am here to guide you through these complexities and incorporate your mind, body and spirit to produce positive and lasting changes. I believe in the powerful reciprocity of the mind and body connection. Health and wellness are the pillars to success and growth, and we are able to move through each phase of this journey together. To meet each clients' unique needs, I enjoy using walks and hikes as a way to engage and communicate, and I always make humor and comfortability a priority. You are the boss and in control of the progress we make together. Virtual and in person sessions available.

My purpose is to be a helpful companion to people with a variety of goals: to live well, to create oneself, to understand more deeply and grow, and to cultivate the kinds of relationships that give life meaning and joy. A therapeutic partnership allows us to explore our patterns of living—of thinking, relating, communicating and behaving—and remake them to make life more satisfying.

I provide trauma-focused individual therapy to adults (ages 18 an up) who struggle with anxiety, depression, panic, trust/abandonment issues, intimacy dysfunction, and self harming behavior.

"Transformation is a process, and as life happens there are tons of up and downs. It's a journey of discovery - there are moments on mountaintops and moments in deep valleys of despair"- Rick Warren. We all struggle with past or present situations that can get in the way of us living our lives wholeheartedly and that have an impact on the connection with oneself and others. Whenever you are going through a difficult time and you are confused about what is your next step, connecting with a trained therapist can be very helpful.

As a marriage and family therapist, a large part of the work focuses on relationships, both marital, couples, and individual. Both the mind and body hold the memory of your life experience and influence whom you become. When you enter into relationship or marriage, your family history and individual personalities join. Understanding how this tapestry weaves together promotes new awareness. I will collaborate, and help you to work through the challenges getting in your way so that you can actualize your own healing. Meditation, guided imagery, and REIKI are available to assist this process, or for your own self care.

I believe the most fundamental aspect of therapy is the relationship between the client and counselor. Growth and change cannot take place without an empathetic, trusting and caring relationship. I work together with my clients to develop a safe, non-judgmental space to explore, understand and work through negative thought patterns, emotions and behaviors that can prevent the happiness and satisfaction with life that we all deserve. Together we will examine and foster your strengths, uncover ways to move past prior painful or traumatic experiences and problem-solve current life stressors to allow you to fully live the life you want.
