“I love my job,” you whisper to yourself, à la Emily Blunt in The Devil Wears Prada. You’re half joking, half desperately trying to convince yourself it’s true. And work is just the start. Your whole life feels cluttered and confusing. You want someone to notice you’re struggling - but then you would have to admit that you’re struggling. You'd prefer people to know the poised, polished, professional you, not the messy version of you that stress watches Parks and Rec until 2:00 am. So you grit your teeth and make another to-do list you that deep down you know you'll never finish.

I enjoy working with individuals that recognize that something needs to change and just aren't sure which way to go. Together, we can explore your motivation to change and learn to live life based on your values, goals, and dreams. Clients who come to see me often have addiction issues, sexual issues, legal issues, relationship issues, and struggles with self image and self worth. We will take a solution focused approach as well as explore deeper, more complex issues.

You want to manage your stress and anxiety more effectively.
You have been thinking about therapy for a while now and wondering if it will help you get your life back on track. You feel as if you have been derailed and have not been yourself. You’re not sure when things started to change but you know you need to do something. Work is stressing you out and you’re having trouble communicating clearly in your relationships. You’ve been overthinking, overwhelmed, and eating more than usual. Your sleep is off because your mind is racing, and you seem to be anxious most of the time.

I understand the stress and loneliness that can accompany food and body issues, and I work hard to create an environment where it's comfortable to explore these issues.
Feeling out of control with food or dealing with self-loathing about appearance can be so hard to bring up, even in therapy. Yet these issues can feel impossible to manage on your own. Years of dieting and joining gyms, and still stuck in the same battle. Body image and food behaviors are a key aspect of our mental state, and therapy can help you build trust with your body, find freedom from the food and body police, heal from traumatic experiences of body image injury, and learn to care for yourself consistently without shame or anxiety. ​
