I am a Licensed Psychologist who loves working with adults who are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, and/or relationship conflict.
Let's be honest: life is hard sometimes. Maybe you find yourself 'stuck' in ineffective patterns, relationships that fail to meet your needs, or feel overwhelmed by the demands that life places on you. Maybe you're struggling with things that happened in the past, or are worried about the future. Maybe you feel like your emotions are getting the best of you, or maybe you feel numbed out and disengaged from the world. Life can provide all kinds of stressors and challenges, and therapy can be a wonderful tool to help navigate through tough times. If you're ready for growth and change, I'm here for you!

My approach utilizes trauma informed evidence-based interventions.
Have you been feeling stuck in the same cycle that isn't working? Perhaps you've begun to notice physical symptoms such as headaches, stomachaches or muscle tension in your body. Learning to manage your emotions and how to better communicate with loved ones can help make a big impact in relieving those physical symptoms. Reaching out for support can be the start of your healing journey. I believe that we all have the ability to change our future for the better. While change may not always be easy or comfortable, the reward is almost always worth it. All your wounds deserve healing.

My part in helping is to get them to the realistic result of finding that which they believed they have lost through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, coping skills development, decreasing depression, decreasing anxiety, revealing, and releasing traumatic experience to move to the phase of healing, and groups to build community.
Every client's issue, needs, and goals will always be different depending on where they are in their journey of trauma and healing. I refuse to treat everyone the same within the scope of my practice. I find being authentic and unapologetic in my delivery tends to allow the client to revisit, readjust and release the things they have found to hold them stagnate in their healing. What I have also uncovered about a client is their "want" and "why" does not always coincide with each other. What they may want may not be why they want it. Realistically, the result is always to find what they lost some time ago.
