Life circumstances can sometimes leave you feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, unheard, and disconnected. As difficult as seeking help may be, it is the first step to moving towards healing and healthier relationship with self and others. My clients are seeking a safe, non-judgmental, and culturally sensitive space that leaves them feeling heard, validated, and connected. My specialties include relationship and familial issues, mood and anxiety disorders, children of divorce, trauma, women dealing with divorce, and couples. I am extensively trained in attachment and systems modalities, trauma-informed interventions, and mindfulness.

Discovering your passions, managing change and navigating everyday stressors can be difficult. Especially when you’re juggling pressures at home or work or dealing with unexpected life events. Therapy provides an opportunity to process and explore, in a judgement free space, in order to build upon strengths and identify areas ready for change. I take a collaborative approach, helping you clarify goals, understand what’s getting in the way, and develop meaningful steps toward lasting growth. My focus is to guide you through periods of transition, strengthen your coping skills, and address behaviors that may be holding you back.

You’ve carried your pain in silence, tucked it behind laughter and responsibility. But now it’s heavy. You long for a space where you don’t have to explain your strength or minimize your struggle. You want relief that lasts longer than a distraction. Whether it’s past wounds, present stress, or future fears, you want to understand yourself, not hide from yourself. You're seeking wholeness, not perfection. You're ready for truth, healing, and the freedom to be fully you.

For more than twenty years, clients have taught me about frustration, worry, sadness and striving to feel better. I work with clients who want to be happier and less anxious, who want to improve their performance, and who want to interact positively in important relationships. Working together, we identify and increase patterns of behavior and ways of thinking that are most productive, eliminating unhealthy behaviors. I also share tools for growth, updating my clients about research findings pertinent to their concerns. Solution-oriented therapy allows clients to set and achieve their goals, becoming happier and more optimistic in the process.

Change is hard. Transition is hard. Life is hard. It can take unexpected turns. Nonjudgmental support and guidance can make a difference. Does having the right support to help you navigate your stressors sound like a relief? Gaining tools and setting goals to move through this season can help lift your outlook and your mood. We can get stuck. We subscribe to others expectations. We can operate with a negative filter. We can compare ourselves to others. We deserve more, we are more and together we can obtain more. I look forward to helping you shine through this tough season.

Do you just need someone to talk to? A safe, judgement-free space to process the daily stressors of life? Maybe you are less focused on being diagnosed and want to learn how to better manage your emotions, or improve your interpersonal skills. In addition to being that judgement-free listening ear, I would like to offer a holistic, client-centered treatment that empowers you to meet your personal therapy goals.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by constant demands, struggling to find balance and peace? We all do at times. But when those feeling grow and you feel anxious, unworthy, unsure and perplexed about how to get free, then it's time to get some help. Do work, family, and relationships take priority? So much so that even sleep feels like an impossibility? Perhaps you have turned to food, alcohol, shopping or online gaming just for some relief? You're not alone, these are common patterns we humans fall into and, guess what? You can unlearn them too. Often all it takes is someone to check-in with, someone you know who cares about you.
