Are you struggling with hopelessness, ongoing despair, lack of motivation, worrying, panic? Can't relax? Is your past wreaking havoc on your present? Chronic pain consuming your life? Does it feel like life is just too much? Is your baggage damaging your relationship? In a safe space, I provide therapy to individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship stress, trauma, chronic pain or life transitions.
I want to help uncover the roots of your struggle to facilitate meaningful and lasting healing and growth. Along the way I also want you to feel better equipped to handle the issues as we work through them. In order to achieve this, I create a space of acceptance, compassion and collaboration while integrating a variety of practical and effective therapies.
Healing may not be so much about getting better, as about letting go of everything that isn't you - all of the expectations, all of the beliefs - and becoming who you are. -Rachel Naomi Remen

With depression, anxiety and chronic pain, I want to help restore a sense of hope through psychoeducation and skill building. Then, we can safely and compassionately identify any deeper wounds underlying these patterns to carefully apply trauma-focused treatment. With singular traumatic events, we may be more targeted and timely in applying trauma treatment, and always paced to meet your needs.

From a client-centered point, I bring focus to the struggles that you feel are most relevant. I strive to help you cultivate accessible and effective skills to use in the here and now based in CBT, mindfulness and positive psychology. I also tend to use EMDR alongside IFS to step back from the "talk" therapy and access your inner healer to promote healing of more deeply seeded wounds.
