I am a psychologist that is passionate about all of us living the full passionate lives we are meant to. Sometimes this involves healing from the past, other times it means working towards visioning and creating the future, oftentimes both. Ready for real change and willing to do the work? (yep it is work but well worth it) Let's go.
Being in relationship with others can uncover areas of strength as well as struggle. If you grew up in a family that didn't do much self reflection, perspective taking, emotion coaching or repair making, you may feel at a bit of a loss with how to navigate relationship struggles in helpful ways.
Perhaps you've vented to friends and family to reduce the tension of the latest disagreement. For most of us though, that doesn't get us the perspective and skills necessary to get unstuck or moving forward more productively. I help people through targeted feedback and support to gain greater relational satisfaction and results. Even if your partner or child won't attend, sometimes the power of one can make a huge difference.
Perhaps today is a good day to take a risk and reach out to see if the change you seek is more attainable than you think. I bring a wholistic, curious, light-hearted, real and down to earth approach that takes into account your unique needs and goals.
If you're ready to try something new and would like support please reach out for help. While I don't accept insurance, I do have current openings. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Feeling like you can never catch up, even though you never sit down? Lying awake at night thinking through all the things you said that day that were ‘awkward’ or ‘wrong’? Running late to everything even though you try your absolute best to be on time? Maybe something just feels off, but you can’t quite put your finger on what it is - maybe you even say to yourself “this shouldn’t be this big of a deal”. And yet something is still keeping you stuck. Anxiety, OCD, perfectionism, and burnout can significantly impact the way your brain handles the stresses of day-to-day life. But there is hope – you don’t have to stay stuck. It is possible to feel like yourself again, and I'd love to talk to you about how you can get there. I provide specialized support for individuals and couples dealing with anxiety, OCD, trauma, and relationship difficulties. I will work with you to find the patterns in your life that may be causing problems and then collaborate with you to find new options and restorative solutions. You don’t have to walk through this difficulty alone, and I’d be honored to support you as you move toward healing. Visit my website or fill out the contact form to schedule a free phone consultation, and we can chat about what you’re looking for and whether I might be the right fit for you.
My years of academic and professional experience have allowed me to effectively work with a diverse client population of all ages, cultural backgrounds, and behavioral/mental health issues, especially those experiencing difficult life circumstances. I strive to help clients navigate situations related to burnout, existential crises, mindfulness, self-care, distress intolerance, interpersonal conflicts, life transitions, thinking disorders, and so much more.

I offer supportive counseling with a keen eye for pinpointing your self-defeating patterns, strengths and solutions.

The aim is that you grow in resiliency and confidence to attain welcomed changes in your life. You are wired for healing and connection, and my job is to help you experience this.

Everyone needs care and support. I believe treatment is more successful when there is an openness and a willingness to work together and collaborate. You do not have to know where to begin but if we work together we can help you reach deeper levels of understanding and healing. Whether it is struggling with the stresses of life or life transitions I want you to feel supported and empowered to be bold in living your best life.
I find effective practices that include focusing on the whole person, being present with you and helping you connect to your mind, body and emotions. Though I can assist you in a variety of ways, I find methods such as Gestalt and mindfulness based to be very useful in helping you better connect to yourself and make sense of what you are experiencing.
Life is full of challenges and part of what makes life beautiful is our ability to see beyond the challenges and find the skills to make the human experience worthwhile. I would love to connect with you. I honor the sacred space you invite me into and I hope to build a collaborative partnership with you in a way that you feel the most supported.
Intimate relationships can be so challenging to navigate. It's natural to feel discouraged or hopeless if you've been experiencing difficulties in your relationship for a while. I know that it can feel really intimidating to face your relationship issues together with your partner, let alone to ask for support from a therapist -- it's so vulnerable! I totally get it -- I've been there too. I'm a couple therapist who has gone through couple therapy, more than once! I understand how vulnerable even thinking about starting couple therapy can feel.
Here's how I can help: I can offer a space for you and your partner to sort through your challenges with fair representation of both partners; I can coach you on how to communicate respectfully and effectively, as well as how to address the core issues that are causing you pain; I can help you find ways to connect with each other that are unique to your relationship, as well as attainable and effective long-term; I can help you to find options to issues that have felt like they have no solutions; ultimately, I can help you to build security in your relationship so that you feel confident in your agreements, connection, and purpose as a couple.
Does this sound like it would be helpful for you? Good! Next step is to fill out my contact form to get in contact with me directly. Let's get you the support you need to feel secure in your relationship. 🙂
I understand that starting therapy can feel intimidating. It's normal to feel anxious about opening up to someone new or to worry about being judged for your feelings and experiences. From the very beginning, my aim is to put you at ease by creating a warm, non-judgmental space where you can safely express and explore every emotion and thought. I want therapy to be a journey of healing and discovery that feels comfortable and supportive, allowing you to grow and learn at your own pace.
