Adolescents and young adult women are my specialties, especially those with depression, anxiety, self-harm, and suicidal thoughts.
Do you feel stuck? Maybe you feel scared and hopeless. Perhaps you're a parent, whose daughter is depressed and cutting herself. Perhaps you're personally dealing with depression that makes each day heavy, and/or anxiety that makes each moment a battle. I understand what it's like to be in those moments, wondering if things can ever get better. I understand how, as a parent, you're afraid for you daughter and wondering how to help. You probably are wondering if I can even help you. The good news is: there is hope. And we can work together to find it.

My dad always says that "a major lesson in life is to realize that everything changes except change itself." Life is loaded with change. Many of us struggle to survive without constant fear/worry. People always say "take one day at a time" but it's not that easy. Living with a disability or chronic illness can feel even more overwhelming and impossible to manage. Therapy can empower us by helping to understand that life is not about everything being okay, but finding peace anyway. I hope to help my clients discover (or re-discover) their strengths and abilities while also learning how to adapt and cope with everyday life.

My goal is to empower my clients to lead full, integrated, self-led lives. Together we will focus not only on behavior change and symptom reduction, but also on compassionately addressing and resolving the underlying factors and beliefs that drive coping responses into extremity. Through an integrated approach rooted in the Internal Family Systems model, I help clients to heal their attachment wounds and take ownership of their identity formation. Clients leave my office with better coping skills, a deeper understanding and connection to Self, and a renewed sense of purpose and empowerment.

There are so many people who believe they are defective or fear rejection if they talk about their struggles. One of the first things I ask people about is what they need to feel safe. Vulnerability is not a skill we've all been taught, but a huge ingredient in the healing process! I aim to work at a gentle/appropriate pace and tailor therapy to YOU. On top of that, I will regularly check-in on how you perceive your progress/time in therapy. If you are someone who is curious and eager (or simply just fed up with where you're at!), feel free to reach out. All are welcome in my space no matter their stories.

Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness. -Desmond Tutu. Sometimes it is hard to be hopeful when we are faced with problems in our life. Oftentimes claiming hope is the first step towards overcoming challenges, whether they be depression or anxiety, relationship stressors, or accepting and flourishing as individuals with multiple identities. From the onset of our time working together, we will establish hope as a foundation. From there we can address whatever burdens you carry together, to give you the knowledge and skills you need to live fully and happily.
