You’re a go-getter. You believe that if there is a way to work your way out of a problem, then defining those steps will get you out of this slump, worry, and recurring conflict. Fear, sleeplessness, dissatisfaction, or sadness coupled with the stress of daily responsibilities is taking its toll. Your upset might manifest as frequent arguing with your partner or emotional numbing. You want to figure this out, so you can all get back to normal. I want to help you re-define normal, not only as a way to be productive but as a way to remain understood, respected, and connected to your loved ones.

The power of your challenges is temporary, and you don't have to face unwanted emotions alone. It's essential to address any hurt, shame, guilt, depression, or anxiety you might be experiencing. Life can be tough, and it's okay to take a step back and take care of yourself. Just like a boxer relies on a corner-man for guidance between rounds, I'm here to support you and help you prepare for the next phase in life, marriage, relationships, career, and finding your happiness. Some rounds may be more demanding than others, but together, we won't back down in the fight for your improved well-being!

Why does everyone else seem happier than me?" "I should be further along than I am." "I'm so frustrated!" Sometimes these are our thoughts-no judgment from me! I understand these challenges. Whether related to stress, anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, or overall life satisfaction, you're not alone. It's a normal part of life. I'm committed to helping you identify solutions and a plan to facilitate hope, authenticity, and happiness. I want you to find meaning and direction for your life. I provide openness for you to express your concerns and see the obstacles that may be keeping you from a happier, more fulfilling life.

I am a firm believer that everyone can benefit from talking to someone neutral at some point in their life. Even for those people who have been fortunate to have support people in their life, a neutral party can be helpful as often our support people cannot be neutral or we have thoughts about not wanting to 'burden' them. This is a big part of how I see my role- a neutral party for people to be able to share their experiences with freely without fear of judgment and to be able to provide alternatives and skills to help life feel more manageable.

Often, life gets away from us before we realize how quickly things have changed. Life is a process of personal growth and evolution. It is also a process of building and maintaining relationships with people in a world that is constantly in flux.

Please Note: After-school time slots are booked but mornings are open. Does your child struggle with expressing his or her emotions, experience meltdowns, aggression, and changes in mood? Do you notice difficulties with regulating emotions and/or energy level? Perhaps you are getting phone calls from your child's school due to behavioral difficulties and disruptions. Or maybe you are noticing behavior challenges and power struggles at home. As a parent, it can be difficult and confusing as to how to best get help for your child. You want to see your child thriving with the necessary support and coping skills to make that happen.

We all go through difficult times. Sometimes we go through circumstances that put us in emotional crucibles that need to be nurtured, explored and worked through. Are you feeling overwhelmed or dominated by a circumstance in your life? Are you in a circumstance with your spouse or children that seems to be taking a lot of energy, consequently causing other areas in your life to be compromised? I specialize working with individuals and families in transition. I also have significant experience working with individuals that have issues with addictions, depression, anxiety, and spiritual conflict.

Change happens inside of us all the time. It is a daily, intentional, purposeful act. When the pain of remaining the same is greater than the relief of being better, therapy helps. If you're having difficulty navigating relationships with your significant other, spouse, friends, children, or family members, I will help you achieve the change you want to see in yourself. Changes from within effect change around us.

My goal & passion is to value all walks of life & experiences! I know it can be difficult to seek help, the idea of counseling can freak some people out. However, if you're looking here, you're halfway there. The impact of trauma, stigma toward mental health, addictions, the LGBTQ+ community, infidelity can reinforce dysfunctional coping, self-loathing and sometimes self-harm. It can keep people stuck. I understand this on a personal and professional level. Therapy's not easy and not the most ideal at times, but can help if you team up with someone who will earn your trust. I want to help those who want and need support
