Are you wondering if psychotherapy may help? Many, many clients have discovered that speaking to another about their stresses and symptoms, in a safe and non-judgemental place, alleviates their anxiety or depression. This is because it is easy to feel overwhelmed alone by the many difficult feelings and confusing thoughts and because another mind and heart can clear the way for deeper understanding, support and healing.
I encourage you to take the step to call.

I specialize in working with people in transition, individuals, couples and young adults. As a Generalist with an emphasis in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I tailor my approach to each individual I work with. I want to fully understand your story; however, I recognize it is important for you to feel comfortable. My first job is to help you become comfortable enough to begin sharing your story. Without a therapeutic partnership, it is difficult to make progress and build the trust necessary for growth and change.

My therapeutic style is collaborative, contemplative, and direct. I work with individuals (ages 15+), families, and couples experiencing difficult transitions, cancer diagnoses, and chronic mental health conditions. Navigating family, health, love, and work can be complicated– especially when one or more of those areas begin to slip into crisis. You might struggle to connect with yourself and your loved ones, build new relationships, or manage new hardships. Through non-judgmental discussion and deepening self-awareness, we’ll clarify your concerns and work to develop interventions for a more resilient and positive sense of self.

If we feel anxious or awkward in groups, initiating conversation and/or making small talk, then everyday interactions with family members, peers, teachers, coaches, colleagues and bosses can be overwhelming. We might just avoid social situations altogether! I work with middle schoolers, high schoolers, college students and adults who are struggling with the social skills necessary to finish school, get a job, make friends and find a life partner.

Over time we develop patterns of behavior that may have once supported us through a difficult time, but these ways of being may be hurting our ability to connect with loved ones or form new connections. Through our work together, we will reflect on how your past experiences may influence who you are today and identify interventions to support you in connecting with who you want to become. In addition to working with individuals, I enjoy supporting people better engage in the important relationships in their lives; this may be within a couple, but can also be in a parent-child relationship.

Hi. I believe couples and individuals have more stacked against their thriving than ever before. Technology inundates us with messages that create unreasonable expectations and stress around personal relationships, parenting, living, and mental health. If modern life sometimes leaves you feeling unfulfilled, confused or anxious, you’re in good company. Most folks go to therapy for a simple reason: they want a smoother life. While I don’t promise to make life easier, I do create a supportive environment focussed on helping you develop tools to overcome relationship and behavioral patterns that might be holding you back.

My belief is that we are all human trying to learn and grow in an ever changing environment. Change for some can be difficult to cope with and result in maladaptive coping skills and other mental health concerns when emotions overwhelm us. I believe that the therapy relationship should always be collaborative and I approach every individual differently to meet their needs with where they are in life. In the therapy process we will assess your different environments and relationships to help understand your current barriers you are seeking help with.
