I appreciate your consideration of me as your therapist. I am committed to assisting my clients in achieving their potential, and although I am a practitioner of several validated effective therapies, perhaps the most important trait I bring to my clients, is to be present for them and make an effort to create an environment that promotes wellness. "EMDR" is a psychotherapy that enables people to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of disturbing life experiences.

When you are feeling stressed or overwhelmed to the point it is impacting your day-to-day life, it helps to talk with someone who is both kind and practical — offering hope and nonjudgmental support, but also collaborating with you on finding real solutions. We all need a guide sometimes when life is hard. I am the type of therapist who will provide validation when you need it but also encourage you to take charge of the things within your control. I work with adults who are experiencing anxiety, stress, trouble communicating with a partner or family, and job burnout. In particular, I enjoy working with educators at all levels.

Handling problems on your own can be a good decision. But when things don't improve and life becomes overwhelming, getting help might be necessary. Sometimes, people are reluctant to go to therapy because they see it as a sign of weakness. It can be difficult to open up and be vulnerable to someone new. But there are times when everyone needs help and guidance through life's challenges. I understand this relutance and I'm here to make this process as easy and as helpful as possible. I will listen to your problems, give you encouragement and support, and teach you the skills you need to improve your life.

Do you find yourself staring at the mirror comparing yourself to others, questioning the decisions you’re making, and experiencing fearful thinking about how to make change or the idea of change itself? Your world is full of chaos that whirls more out of control each day and the more you try to hold on the more difficult it seems to keep your grip. Like your body isn’t able to support you or keep up with you- creating fear, anxiety, and other feelings you can’t even begin to describe. Like the mirror in front of you is cracking in a million directions and you don’t know how to fix the image of the person standing in front of you.
