Sometimes we just need a safe space to express what we are going through in life; a space where we don't feel judged; where we can process, feel, and think about what is happening now and what is ahead of us. I work with adults of all ages in coping with life transitions, relationship struggles, anxiety, and depression. I have a special interest and focus in working with those who have experienced complex and developmental trauma which can show-up later in life as challenges in relationships, work, and achieving dreams and potential.

We all face challenges throughout our lives. My focus is on helping individuals see what anxiety is—it started out as a protective strategy. Its job is to make you aware of all possible problems before they even arise…and then it got out of control. You can learn how to handle this stress differently. Remember, it is how you handle a challenge that makes the experience a "grind" or a "growing experience".

What does it mean to prioritize your mental health? I ask this question to help shed light on one of the most effective ways to handle life's challenges and unresolved trauma. Therapy opens doors to unlimited possibilities, your ideal self. I focus on helping my clients step outside themselves and explore hidden aspects of who they are. The fear of the unknown is real and therapy allows you to traverse that journey with a facilitator, someone you can reach out to in a crisis.

My ideal client may be resistant to starting therapy, whether because they have been misunderstood, ignored, have a hard time trusting, are individualists and perfectionists, or have financial, physical, mental, or emotional challenges. This may include the neurodiverse, the marginalized, LGBTQ+ individuals, or those with grief, depression or Bipolar diagnosis, or someone who feels that something just feels wrong. I bring my experience with medical and emotional trauma, grief, and depression, and I provide clients a safe, secure, consistent, empathetic, and understanding space for them to share their problems.

While each client has unique needs, my approach is Person-centered and Humanistic. I typically use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing techniques; however, I have an eclectic approach overall. I sometimes draw interventions from Brief Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I also believe it is important to be multifaceted since therapy is not one-size-fits-all, so therapy will be an assimilation of different techniques that are catered to client needs.

We are all unique in our histories, yet feelings of anxiety, depression, loss, and love are all universal. Some days feel easy to handle, and others may feel overwhelming and unending. For many people, painful experiences outweigh the happier parts of their lives. My passion is to help people of all ages. Our emotions are the same regardless of how old we are. We can work together through sensitive subjects and set goals towards healing and thriving.
Reaching out is a big step, sometimes the hardest. I would love the opportunity to meet with you in person or talk via teletherapy. I would be honored to hear your story.

Your partner is arguing with you about a fight from last week. He’s raising his voice, but all you hear is a voice in your head saying, “How did we get here?” You once shared a deep sense of connection and understanding and now barely make it through the week without bickering. It breaks your heart. The spark between you is gone, and the only time you’re fired up is while blaming one another. It’s devastating to feel the dreams you shared slipping away from you. You’re lonely, misunderstood, and there is a chasm in your bed that’s impossible to cross. You miss the intimacy and love you used to have.

Cancer Therapists
How does cancer affect mental health?
A cancer diagnosis is a major life event that can significantly influence the mental health of any individual. Being diagnosed with cancer often introduces a sense of uncertainty about the future, which can cause clients to experience symptoms of anxiety, depression, and significant distress. Many cancer patients may also worry about the toll that their diagnosis may have on their family, their physical health, their job, and their financial situation. The compounding of such stressors can also decrease mental health in clients and may lead to additional symptoms that can influence mental health, such as sleeping difficulties or social withdrawal.
What is the best psychological therapy for cancer patients?
The best type of psychological therapy for cancer patients is highly dependent on the needs of the individual. The therapy type that a client benefits from may also depend on what stage of the cancer journey they are in. Recently diagnosed cancer patients, for instance, may benefit from therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which can help clients develop skills to manage the emotional distress that comes with a cancer diagnosis. Alternatively, cancer patients further along in their journey may benefit from therapies like Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) or other forms of mindfulness therapy to help manage symptoms or physical pain associated with treatment. Clients may also consider group therapy, which offers cancer patients an opportunity to receive support from other individuals dealing with a cancer diagnosis.
Are there any risks or drawbacks in going to therapy while dealing with cancer?
Although attending therapy while dealing with a cancer diagnosis can be helpful, one major concern for cancer patients can be the financial cost of seeking therapy. Many therapists are out-of-network, meaning they do not accept insurance, and thus clients are expected to pay the entirety of the session fee. Since many cancer patients may be out of work as a result of their diagnosis or cancer treatment regimen, the costs of therapy sessions can be substantial. Luckily, many cancer centers and local clinics may offer free or substantially reduced-cost counseling services to cancer patients and their families. In addition, cancer patients may be eligible for grants or other forms of funding from local agencies and nonprofits to seek therapy for their cancer diagnosis. Such opportunities can be very helpful for cancer patients, as they allow clients to obtain the benefits of therapy without the financial strain.
How long does cancer therapy typically last?
The length of cancer therapy depends on the needs of each client. In some cases, cancer patients may only require therapeutic support during the period following their initial diagnosis—to help manage the uncertainty and shock of a cancer diagnosis. In other cases, clients may choose to receive therapy throughout their treatment, and even following, their cancer journey. Pursuing therapy for a longer period of time can help clients develop a deeper relationship with their therapist and provide opportunity to process the challenges presented by cancer treatment, such as physical pain, and challenges associated with cancer survivorship, such as ongoing identity concerns, physical limitations, or relationship challenges.
