Life is hard, work can be stressful, parenting can be chaotic, relationships can be confusing, and sometimes we are just not okay!
I’m a person centered therapist eager to walk beside you as we take an exploratory journey into your values, challenges, and overall needs. You will lead and I will follow. Along the way we can increase your coping skills, learn more about mindfulness and begin to experience relaxation physically, mentally and spiritually.

My ideal client is a man who looks like he has it all together—career, relationship, responsibilities—but feels disconnected, burnt out, or stuck in patterns he can’t name. He wants clarity, better communication, and tools to manage stress and relationships without losing himself in the process. He’s tired of just coping—he wants to take action and feel like himself again.

Particular areas of focus include eating disorders, pregnancy/postpartum related issues, couple's counseling, child/adolescent struggles and parenting skills.
Reaching out to begin counseling takes strength, courage and vulnerability. It represents a desire for understanding and a hope for change to take place.

My goal is to help my clients figure out how to use their unique strengths to work through a challenging time in their lives by developing new coping skills to deal with previous roadblocks.

Life is complex and at various transitional times life can become confusing. In counseling, the integration of our conflicting emotions is at the heart of who we are and how we struggle. It is equally important that you feel safe, valued and respected as we develop our therapeutic relationship. Together we will explore and validate your true authentic self; develop skills to confront life's challenges and embrace the joys; delve into your feelings and emotions with understanding and acceptance. Finding your voice, understanding your emotions and choosing behaviors that reflect yourself at best will weave our therapeutic relationship together.

Do you often feel misunderstood? Have you been told to toughen up because you are "too sensitive"? Do you long to feel closer to others but feel overwhelmed by the task? Having the capacity for depth and complexity can be difficult to navigate in our competitive, linear-oriented, results-driven culture. Knowing and accepting yourself for simply "you" (not who others think you should be) is an important practice to cultivate and will help release toxic stress and shame, allowing you to connect more deeply with yourself and others.

The struggle is real! Life can be challenging, overwhelming, and at times, just plain difficult. The good news is, it does not have to be and you don't have to go it alone. My approach is to offer compassionate support in a nonjudgmental and empowering environment in which you are the expert on your experiences. The goal of therapy, I hope, is to empower you to appropriately deal with life events, reduce stress, and experience personal growth. I also hope therapy will allow for increased feelings of self worth, satisfaction in relationships and will lead to a more fulfilling life.

As a licensed professional counselor and registered art therapist, I provide a creative and supportive space for clients to explore their emotions, challenges, and goals through the power of art. Art therapy offers a unique way to access feelings that may be difficult to express with words, fostering self-discovery, healing, and personal growth. Using a person-centered approach, I empower children, teens, and families to develop insight, build coping skills, and create meaningful change at their own pace. No artistic experience is needed—just a willingness to explore and express.
