I work with adolescents, adults and families, who have a wide range of challenges from daily stress to serious mental health complications, depressions, addictions, anxieties and severe trauma.

I see virtual clients in Florida, Colorado and Indiana. Life happens and events, good and bad, can add up! Often times we personalize these events to mean something about ourselves. Sooner than not, we can start to define ourselves by what has happened to us rather than who we decide we are. I believe in providing my clients a choice in how they create meaning in their lives rather than finding themselves stuck or helpless. If you have ever felt yourself believing "I am not good enough", "I am unlovable", "I can't trust myself or others", "I am invisible", and the like, you are not alone.

Are you going through life transitions and feeling stuck? Do you need someone to listen supportively and without judgement?

I work with individuals suffering from anxiety, depression, trauma, phase of life issues, and many other challenges.

If life has dealt you and/or your relationship some difficult circumstances and you've survived but walked away with wounds that aren't healing the way you'd like, therapy is a great option for you. If the thought of healing, feeling whole and at peace within yourself and in your relationships, leaves you with a lump in your throat or a mixture of hope and doubt, it might be time to look for an advocate to walk alongside you as you revisit your history to make a way for a better future. When you realize that you want more for yourself and your relationships, call me, and let's do this it together.

Whether you have struggles with anxiety, depression, work/family stress, life transitions, or other mental health concerns you will find a sensitive, caring and respectful environment to meet your treatment needs.

*Does it feel impossible to get past the self-criticism and negative tape playing in your head? *Does the saying "you have to love yourself before you can love anyone else" leave you feeling frustrated or confused? *Do you wonder "how can I love myself when I know who I've been and the things I've done"? The bottom line: WE START TO BELIEVE THAT WE ARE NEVER GOOD ENOUGH. This belief impacts the way we see ourselves and the way we see others. Ultimately, it can wreak havoc on our lives and relationships!
