One of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. Life is full of unexpected events that sometimes leave us feeling unsettled. Whether you are experiencing anxiety, grief, childhood trauma, or just need someone to listen and give you a different perspective. Therapy can work for you. Therapy is not a one-size-fits-all; therefore, I use a combination of evidence-based therapy techniques tailored to your individual needs. I aim to make sure you feel comfortable as we work together to explore your story and focus on personal growth and healing.

My goal is to partner with you in discovering your own, unique, ability to heal. I believe that hope, wholeness, and peace are all possible, but that sometimes we need assistance in finding them. Coping with the reality of our story can be difficult when it is not as we originally wished it to be. Together we can make meaning of your story and find the strength that lies within it. My approach to therapy is to assist you in doing the difficult work of uncovering your true, fully-alive self, amidst this present pain.

If you or your family are struggling with issues like substance abuse, addiction, eating disorders, or relationship conflicts (infidelity, communication problems, etc.), therapy can be a great way to deal with those struggles. Most people struggle without support for longer than is helpful. People have the innate skills to cope and bounce back from their struggles. My goal as a therapist is to provide a non-judgmental space for you to identify and grow the tools to work on those struggles.

Are you struggling with relational challenges? When you discover the way you were wired up from birth, you can more effectively relate with others, meet life's challenges, and fulfill your chosen purpose and destiny. Do you find yourself dependent on substances or unhealthy relationships? Are you using unhealthy ways of medicating the pain that you carry? The hurts of the past may be keeping you from fully living in the present, but the experience of God's unconditional love and grace offer healing and freedom.

I am able to provide tools and a safe environment to manage the anxiety and depression that often arise. Ultimately, I work to build trust so that you feel safe to be heard and are not alone as you walk on your life journey.

Sometimes our lives can feel like an untamed wilderness, we get lost in uncharted territories of anxiety, depression, conflict or feeling “stuck” with our partner, feelings of low self-worth, trauma, and so many others. As your therapist, I am committed to braving that wilderness with you as we explore new pathways together to discover your best life possible! Making the decision to try therapy and reaching out to a total stranger to share your most vulnerable self can be very intimidating and scary; I commend your bravery in getting this far. You have the first step towards inner peace and freedom!

I specialize in Rumination-Focused ERP for OCD. This approach to ERP focuses on treating compulsive rumination, and provides a highly systematic yet gentler approach to exposure therapy. RF-ERP can be helpful to patients who have not made significant progress in other types of treatment, including individuals with Pure O or Sensorimotor OCD. I also believe in the importance of treating the emotional dynamics that underlie OCD symptoms. I therefore integrate psychoanalytic treatment within and alongside ERP, to foster deeper and more lasting change than ERP alone can offer.

I believe that through counseling we can find value in ourselves, our adverse experiences, our mistakes, and even in the thoughts and feelings that can be difficult to share. We all reach a point in our life where we need change. I believe that in finding the value in all things and through self-discovery, we can promote change and begin to step into the life we wish to live.
