Are you feeling overwhelmed, stretched too thin, or like you're constantly running on empty? Whether you're juggling a demanding career, the pressures of parenting, or both, it's easy to lose yourself in the chaos of daily life. Maybe you find yourself snapping more than you’d like, struggling to stay present, or feeling like no matter how hard you try, it’s never enough. Burnout, guilt, and stress can quietly take over—leaving you disconnected from the person you want to be. If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Therapy offers a space to step back, take a breath, and taken an intentional moment to take care of YOU.

I believe we all long to flourish. When we meet, we will explore what flourishing means to you, what your goals are, and what's standing in your way. I look first at your strengths—what's working for you now— and why you think you are struggling in certain areas. We will then collaborate on how to reach your goals. As a Christian I know we have a unique relationship with God, and when asked I integrate spirituality. Because I have a lifetime of lived experiences I am compassionate, nonjudgmental, and empathetic. I draw from these experiences, and it informs my counseling. Helping others to flourish has always been part of who I am.

I am attachment and systems based and work out of/trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, psychoanalysis, and EMDR.
Today you took the first step in seeking help and that is a brave thing. I am honored to be one of the people you are thinking about. Healing happens when we look at all of ourselves; our whole selves and our whole family system whether born to it or finding it along the way. Healing can happen at any age and it’s never too early or too late to work on the array of trauma and experiences that have gotten us to the point we are at. Through learning about how our brain works best, learning better coping skills or communication skills and regulating our nervous system we can find some peace.

Using CBT, your child can learn to manage and communicate their emotions in healthy ways.
You’ve tried everything, but your child is struggling despite your best efforts. You’re constantly managing their tear-streaked tantrums or sullen silences. “Time outs” don’t work, rewards don’t work, you want to pull your hair out sometimes. You’ve tried talking to them, but they won't tell you what they need. You wish you could read their mind. Pain and anxiety are written all over your child’s face. You so badly want to help but don’t know how. The helplessness and guilt you feel to see them suffer are almost too much to bear. You’ll never give up searching for a way to help them. There’s nothing you wouldn’t do for your child.

At one point or another, we all experience stress. Often we are able to manage stress effectively and grow through our struggles. Unfortunately, some circumstances such as major life transitions, relationship problems, memories of painful situations from the past, or other major stressors, can overwhelm our ability to cope. When this occurs, people may experience symptoms such as sleep difficulty, changes in daily behaviors, low motivation, tension or irritability. In difficult times, speaking to a compassionate professional can help struggling individuals find hope, learn new skills , and improve their quality of life.
