Welcome! Thank you for being here. I'm so excited to get to know you and your nervous system. As a trauma & somatic therapist, I help women heal unresolved trauma, increase self-esteem, confidence, set healthy boundaries and ultimately live an intentional life outside of survival mode all through a somatic lens. The women that come see are those who are all "talked out", are experiencing ongoing physical symptoms such as gut health issues, chronic migraines, TMJ, muscle tension, burning sensations, heart conditions, shooting pains, etc.; experience anxiety, hypervigilance, dissociation, and/or feel "stuck" in their healing journey.

Congratulations on your first step to finding help from whatever issue(s) you feel may be holding you back! Truth be told, there is a time in everyone's life when an outsider's perspective is helpful in reframing whatever it is we have going on. As a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, I've had the pleasure of working with hundreds of individuals and families struggling with anxiety, mood disorders, family conflict, parentings issues, relationship problems and trauma.

O P E N times available for BCBS & Self-Pay clients. Experienced treating children and adults with Anxiety, Bipolar, Depression, Trauma, and relationship or life challenges. I invite you to call me and share the hopes you have for therapy, ask questions, and see if you would like to start working together. Maybe you are looking for help finding more balanced moods, adjusting to a difficult change in your life, dealing with the difficulties from a traumatic experience or rebuilding a professional or personal relationship. Seeking help is a sign of your resilience and strength. .

Life is difficult and people are often confused about how to manage the emotions and circumstances brought on by those difficulties. I work with families and individuals to resolve issues that prevent them from living a peaceful life. My approach is accepting, eclectic, practical, collaborative, active and mindful. If you are a parent struggling with how to manage your child's behaviors, a couple experiencing a fractured relationship, a teen or individual trying to come to terms with identity or a family dealing with adversity, I practice evidenced based skills that could improve your circumstances and your well being.

Do you need help learning new coping skills? Assistance with connecting the dots between past and present? Do you want to make a change but do not know where to start? I work with individuals who are experiencing a wide array of challenges such as trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, infertility and postpartum struggles.

Life is filled with challenges and sometimes we find ourselves not having the skills, knowledge, resources, or “neurology” to manage. I believe that counseling can help people identify the roadblocks which prevent them from feeling competent and hopeful. I view each person who chooses to work with me as unique and capable, and together we build a relationship where humor, trust, and compassion facilitates our work. Together we work towards removing or reducing roadblocks to help you reach your personal goals. It’s not always easy, but it is a journey that is often life changing. I feel honored to go on the journey with you.

I have been a social worker for over 23 years. During that time I have had the opportunity to work with many individuals and families experiencing a variety of issues including trauma, addiction, grief and loss, relationship issues and stress. When left unresolved, these issues often cause other problems that prevent us from living our best lives. In therapy, we will collaborate as a team to work towards achieving your goals. I use a client-centered approach and think that developing the client-therapist relationship is essential to helping you address and alleviate the concerns you are having.

Living with stress, anxiety, and/or depression can be exhausting. Learning strategies to manage symptoms can be liberating. I work with adolescents and adults who are looking for ways to manage a variety of concerns -from the stress of daily life to major mental illness and trauma.

My approach to treatment is empathetic and integrative. I have many years of experience as a psychologist. I provide a safe, warm, and supportive environment in therapy where one might effectively cultivate lasting change. I provide individual and family therapy in both short and long term modalities to people with a variety of presenting problems across the lifespan. I use evidenced-based treatments, taking into careful consideration the unique needs of each person. I am skilled in cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance & commitment therapy (ACT), trauma-informed therapy (PE, ARC, TF-CBT), and DBT-informed interventions.

"Pain is the touchstone of all growth." --Bill Wilson. Using a wide range of therapeutic approaches in a safe, non-judgmental environment, my focus is on helping individuals and couples cope with difficult circumstances and challenges including anxiety, depression, anger, addiction/substance abuse, disordered eating, relational conflict, divorce, PTSD/trauma, grief, and life transitions. I seek to help clients address their problems and ineffective behavior by exploring, identifying and defining priorities, problems, values and goals in service of their healing and growth.

I specialize in the treatment of children, adolescents, and their families. I strive to provide a safe, respectful, nurturing, and non-judgmental environment where people can express themselves and explore their personal challenges. I use an integrated therapeutic approach, drawing upon evidence-based treatment interventions that are tailored to the individual's style and needs. I offer parent management training and collaborate with schools. It is important to me to provide treatment that allows for my clients to recognize their strengths, gain control of their behaviors, and reach their full potential.

As a social worker for over twenty years, I have worked with many children, teens, adults and families facing a variety of issues, including trauma, loss, and family conflict. I have a strong clinical background in relational trauma. In therapy, I can work with you on a range of goals, such as learning better ways to cope with anxiety, working through grief, resolving conflict in relationships or finding relief from depression. I draw from different modalities (such as Cognitive Behavioral and Family Systems), always from a strengths-based perspective. Together, we can collaborate to find a therapy approach that is right for you.

If you're feeling anxious, lonely, sad or overwhelmed right now you are not alone. These are all normal responses to stressful and unpredictable times. It's important that you take time to attend to your emotional needs and well-being. Whether you're a parent trying to juggle work demands while caring for young children or a healthcare professional feeling burnout and compassion fatigue, I can help. The antidote to burnout is having a strong support system and practicing self-care so you can access your inner resilience.

Therapy can help you manage life's varied challenges and live a more fulfilled life. It can help you understand what you're feeling, why and how to cope. Just like visiting your doctor for regular wellness exams, or your dentist for checkups, meeting with a therapist can help keep your mental health in order. In our sessions, you will be offered a comfortable, safe and nurturing environment in which to understand your personal, emotional, spiritual and relational struggles.
