I'm a Certified Emotionally Focused Therapist and my specialty is working with couples and individuals who are facing relationship challenges. What if life with your partner could be as fulfilling as you crave? If you're experiencing frustrating arguments, loneliness, or desperation for a change, I can help you find warmth, respect, and connection. We'll work as a team to help you recognize your strengths, identify areas you want to improve, and help you to create a more fulfilling relationship. With experience, advanced training, and compassion, I offer an individualized approach to help you experience the relationship you desire.

Therapy can support and help cultivate the rich well within especially during times of seeming drought. I provide a safe co-created space supporting one's personal journey of healing. My therapeutic style is warm and personal. Meeting each clients' unique needs by focusing on personal strengths, growth and positive change. I work with young adult women and men, adolescents and families.

I work with youth, teens, young adults and couples to help through the challenges that life can throw at us all. I am a firm believer that inside all of us there is a person who wishes to be heard and affirmed. When we find this person we can find the strength to overcome difficult situations.

I evaluate children, teens, & adults with questions of ADHD, autism, learning disabilities, and related emotional dysregulation and problems in functioning. Families can experience major frustration in finding interventions that are individualized to people’s unique needs: going through years of therapy and not feeling any better; getting conflicting feedback from other clinicians; having several diagnoses that don’t seem to align with what you’re going through; treatments that don’t seem to get you to your goals. Having a clear diagnosis is key in establishing a treatment plan and supporting interventions that are a good fit.

You've been trying to drive but anxiety, eating disorders, OCD, or depression just keep taking the wheel from ya! You want to get the control back but trying hasn't really been making a difference. All these control attempts can leave you feeling so burnt out and lonely. I see you. There are ways to heal and get you back in the drivers seat of your life. Together we can begin to break down the expectations that others have on you and instead, learn to tune into and trust your own intuition. Figure out how these patterns even got started in the first place so you have more choice in doing something different in the future.

Do you feel alone and unbalanced, like you’re spread thin without relief in sight? Do you feel guilty for not feeling the way you “should”? Have you lost hope? Stress and despair around issues such as pregnancy loss, infertility, pregnancy complications, birth trauma, unplanned pregnancies, postpartum anxiety and depression and the transition to parenthood often go unaddressed, leaving women and their families feeling disjointed and alone. It's time to break the silence and reclaim the hope you deserve. Your story is unique and warrants individualized attention as you work to rebuild in a safe, supportive environment.

After living and working in UT for 17 years, I have relocated to CA and am providing telehealth, with in person visits every 6 weeks. I have 20 years experience treating eating disorders and work within multidisciplinary teams to provide a high level of care, outpatient. My practice has consistently been 95+% eating disorder clients, who also present with anxiety, depression, self-harm and related behaviors, PTSD and/or relational trauma. I approach eating disorder treatment with a strong focus on both physiological and emotional recovery, and am able to treat those with mild to severe eating disorders within the outpatient setting.

I practice primarily from a compassion-oriented perspective. In my practice, I embrace vulnerability and lean on the power of human connection. My approach to this work centers on the mind-body connection, nervous system awareness + relational equity as the most valuable components in healing from trauma. All of the biggest emotions are welcomed in the container we co-create. Trauma can create an imbalance in power dynamics and rigid options in our lives, so power-sharing + access to choice will be the anchor we often come back to.

I specialize in anxiety disorders ( OCD and panic). I am passionate about assisting patients with compulsions, fears, and intrusive thoughts that no one wants to talk about, i.e., what if I jumped off a cliff, or hurt someone, what if I no longer believe in my faith. I have an energetic, open and caring style. I will give you clear feedback and things to read and work on outside of therapy so we can make our time more productive and help you meet your goals. We understand the part of brain that misfires in OCD and can actually help you rewire your brain. ERP--Exposure and response prevention is used. Prefer EMAIL inquiry.

Daily life can be scary, even daunting. For some of us, we have the additional stressors of trauma, loss, loneliness, addiction and loss of purpose. In therapy I strive to help individuals overcome their barriers. Happiness and balance are goals for me. I have experience treating addiction, trauma, depression, anxiety, bipolar, grief, relationship issues and more. Whether you view current barriers to be day to day stressors or intense trauma and PTSD, I can provide support, caring and understanding. My goal is for all of my clients to regain their purpose, feel connection and find more happiness in their lives.

***I currently have a waitlist for new patients*** I believe that therapy is a journey to build a better you. Whether that is moving through trauma, exploring and conquering anxiety, learning sports psychology tactics, raising your child (and dealing with the wonderful adolescent drama), fighting addiction, or strengthening your marriage, we're in this together. If you enter my therapy office, you are here to grow. While therapy is a process, it does not have to be a long, drawn out, difficult and treacherous.

I understand that change is achieved through the creation of a safe, trusting relationship, making space to have your story heard, your strengths recognized, and your emotions witnessed. Creating that type of space requires lots of realness and a little time.

Increase resilience and experience greater life fulfillment. Fostering a mutual respect and collaborative relationship with clients to achieve defined goals lies at the heart of my practice. My approach to therapy honors each of my client's unique life experiences, positive and negative, by utilizing a trauma-informed lens to guide each client through accessing their strengths and building skills in order to increase resilience and experience greater life fulfillment. I employ a variety of therapeutic modalities to conceptualize problems and create interventions, including acceptance and commitment therapy, mindfulness practices, cognitive behavioral therapy, and treatments rooted in the latest neuroscience.
