I love working with children, adolescents and adults who know a better life is possible, but lack the tools, self-esteem and/or support needed to overcome old patterns and create a new way of being. The kids I support in the playroom often struggle to communicate, manage their behavior, exhibit confidence, problem solve and positively relate to others. Adolescents and adults I serve may have experienced harmful relationships, traumatic events, or notice difficulties feeling comfortable in their own skin. It would be an honor to accompany you on life's journey of ups and downs as you heal the past and work toward a brighter future.

You did it - you took the first step toward a more enriched life. Yes, therapy can be scary, but so can continuing to exist day to day without fulfillment, fire, or clarity.

Do you feel stuck? Not sure how to get back to yourself, your family or keep working at your job? At times, it may feel like it is just you against it all, alone and unsure of how to proceed.

Let's work together to figure out where to start, what the roadblocks are and how you can capitalize your strengths to over come them.

Sometimes life can be tough. It can tear you down and take you through some things that you feel like you can never recover from. It's difficult to navigate through grief, life transitions, trauma, depression, anxiety, or everyday stressors by yourself. To often, people feel there is no help or hope for them, their child, or that family member or friend they worry about. There is hope!

Let's be honest. This is a challenging time and space to be living in. There is so much more you can control in your life experience than what society leads you to believe. I'd be honored to offer you a place of support, a genuinely connected relationship, and my expertise (in nerdy stuff like neuroscience and the cognitive process) to help defeat whatever is standing between you & the life you deserve. My goal is to bring hope and SOLUTION to negative things my clients are experiencing through their own personal empowerment.
