Feeling lost and disconnected? Thinking "I need help" but not sure where to begin? You're not alone and you're in the right place. Searching for help and reaching out is hard and often easier said than done. If you've made it as far as looking you've already made a small but significant win for yourself. Life is messy and we're not meant to do it alone. I enjoy helping people as a guide to take a step back and clean up their mental and emotional space to find deeper connection to themselves and within relationships. I work with young adults and adults ages 17 and up.

For me and my work there aren't many things more powerful and influential than a genuine human connection, a respectful relationship, and a safe space for exploration. I believe the root source of any change comes from feeling secure in these very areas. My hope is that I can provide these basic foundations with my clients. I strive to create a space in which there is respect, humor, no judgement, and an openness to learn. I find that in this space people are able to tackle a range of issues, strengthen skills, and positive growth takes place.

I help people to look within and find the inner strengths they have to overcome problems. This is achieved by guiding them in a process that discovers their best way of expressing themselves in a healthy manner. The assessment methods I use with you are unique and tailored to each individual person’s needs. I like to think outside of labels and assist you in finding success in all areas of life, whether it be home, school or work.

Sometimes in life we get overwhelmed, feel stuck, and need help navigating transitions, uncertainty, or loss. The bulk of my professional experience before private practice was fostering emotional comfort for people approaching end of life as a hospice social worker. It honed my ability to hold compassionate presence while growing therapeutic approaches to meet an array of needs. I have a strong understanding of the ways loss can take shape, multiply, and be disenfranchised, how trauma can lace its way through life and shape our reactions, and ways to keep yourself afloat when life keeps stirring up storms.

I approach therapy through creating a safe and supportive space in which a strong therapeutic relationship can form. Through a genuine partnership I support clients to identify meaningful goals. Working together we can grow to a better understanding of unhelpful life patterns, both inside and out, that leave one feeling distressed and unfulfilled. I use a holistic approach that draws upon a broad array of therapeutic resources depending upon what best suits your particular needs and situation. Clients are able to cultivate strengths and helpful skills along this therapeutic journey that help to improve identified difficulties.

Being a human is not easy. We search for our meaning, our purpose, all while the world spins a web of uncertainty making it hard to feel safe and leaving us feeling anxious, hopeless, and estranged from what makes us happy. My goal as a therapist has always been to support my clients, both teenagers and adults, in looking at their lives to identify their meaning and purpose. I am of the firm belief that confronting those things that are hardest, with the support of others, can break the overwhelm of anxiety, the frustrations of ADHD, and the domination of OCD.

Life can be tough and difficulties are unavoidable, but counseling can help strengthen your internal resources so you can navigate stressors more effectively.

At a pace that is comfortable, we’ll work collaboratively to explore and process thoughts & feelings, clarify personal goals, and identify barriers to growth. Together we may explore strengths, practice skills, and identify strategies to facilitate the change you desire.
