Anxiety, depression PTSD, ADHD, OCD, and all the other mood disorders can really make life a struggle, and sometimes unbearable. The clients I see need a safe space, someone to trust, and someone who cares. They are seeking support and guidance to overcome their challenges. They are open to exploring their thoughts and feelings, and they are willing to be vulnerable and honest. They need help to make positive changes in their life and relationships. They want to gain insight into themselves and their experiences, and they want to develop new skills and strategies for coping with life’s challenges.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by stress or feeling like you're not coping as well as you once did? Maybe these feelings are a result of a major (or minor) life change, a relationship problem, or you have struggled for some time & know that it's time to get help. It can be difficult to place faith in a stranger, & beginning therapy can be awkward or even scary. However, couples & individuals who I have worked with have experienced a greater sense of purpose, an improved sense of self, and better relationships. I have helped my clients cultivate healthy relationships & break out of dysfunctional patterns.

I focus on finding motivating values and passions that lead to curiosity. When we cannot find excitement in the ordinary, we can feel begin to feel heavy and isolated. As we move closer to our core motivators, we can begin to feel empowered and motivated toward change in all aspects of life. Creating a safe space to explore our identity allows us to reframe our thinking into a life that feels manageable and exciting. When someone feels heard, valued, encouraged, and support they are capable of embracing the freedom that comes in everyday life.

Many people struggle with trauma. At times individuals lose sight of their dreams, goals, and sometimes theirselevs. Flashbacks, dissociation, nightmares. anxiety, hypervigilance, depression, and inability to focus can all be symptoms of trauma. People with trauma struggle with intimate relationships, boundaries, and communication. Many individuals feel alone and feel misunderstood. They usually want to be close and trust others but their trauma gets in the way. Learning to grow, trust, lessen negative symptoms, and learn new coping skills and boundaries are needed to intervene to make life liveable.

Maintaining a safe, nonjudgmental space for you to examine your fears and concerns, I create opportunity for you to clarify your goals for yourself and your relationships. I will support you in working towards greater happiness so you can be the parent, partner, and version of yourself that you want to be.

I enjoy working with people who are going through shame. I believe that shame is something that is widely prevalent today, but due to the very nature of shame we are too fearful to talk about it or let it slip that we are struggling with who we are. I also have a passion working with people who are struggling in their relationships with their partners or spouses. I love doing couples counseling and helping to re-establish the love and trust that was once there.

I am passionate about helping adults experiencing anxiety, stress, and trauma learn how to heal the parts of themselves that are preventing them from living the life they want. My work as a therapist focuses on helping those who are struggling to set boundaries, are indecisive and overthinking everything; people-pleasing and trying to always keep the peace; striving for perfection and feeling overwhelmed in the process; feeling burnt out of putting everyone else's needs in front of their own; and wanting to work through the past to be able to move forward in life free of anxiety.

I believe counseling can facilitate learning how to deeply heal from what has wounded us, and what may still be hurting us. Dr. Steven C. Hayes suggests “we hurt where we care and care where we hurt”. Paradoxically, pain is often deeply connected to the values of the heart. Therapy is often re-connecting or discovering our own values – qualities of being and doing – is an ongoing process of implementing larger and larger values-based patterns through trial and error.

My clients have come to therapy because they're looking to pull themselves out of crisis, understand themselves better, find answers, and create action plans to build and maintain the life they want and deserve.
