The pressure of being a woman in today’s society can be challenging, even for the most successful. The idea that we have to “do it all” in order to “have it all” can be overwhelming. Each stage of a woman's life can present a different set of challenges. Are you struggling as you are entering into adulthood or find retirement to be a challenge? Somewhere in-between? Do you feel guilty because you chose a career over a family, or a family over a career? Maybe you chose both but feel you are not living up to your or everyone else's expectations? Do you feel like part of your life is missing but you are not sure how to find it?

Hi there, welcome to you! I help children, teenagers, and adults identify, address, and overcome current and past traumatic experiences as well as create healthy coping strategies and build confidence in tackling daily stressors.

Life is complicated. You may be feeling lost or overwhelmed right now. Having someone to talk to may be the difference between overcoming your challenges or letting them dictate your life. I work to create a warm, welcoming, and respectful environment so you can focus on finding solutions and having the life you want.

I also have experience working with people who are recovering from the trauma of physical illness and concerns.

So what IS therapy? Does it mean that I am crazy? Is something wrong with me? Will I be judged? No, no, and no. Despite what our peers may tell us or what we our culture has told us, therapy provides an opportunity to process your thoughts, feelings, and emotions in a safe place. It can be very instrumental in helping individuals work on resolving problems/issues, craft achievable goals, learn new patterns of thinking, and develop healthy strategies to cope with certain life challenges and difficulties in an effort to enhance overall mental health and well-being. There are just so many benefits to choosing therapy!

Does it happen to you that you wake up and see a sunny day with pleasant weather but you feel unmotivated and want to go back to bed and not deal with anyone or anything? Have you felt like running away to a place where no one knows you and starting from scratch? Do you feel like going back in time and changing your life so you can enjoy it? These are very normal reactions to life's challenges. Exploring and knowing yourself is part of personal growth and when knowledge grows, opportunity appears. Together we can begin this path of personal healing and help you make the changes you want to be the best version of yourself.

I became a therapist out of a passion and love in walking others through the storms of life. We all experience times in our lives that leave us bruised, battered, and beaten. As a therapist, my goal is to help you find a way out of your storm and become a stronger, more resilient, and more fulfilled person. The basis for my practice is Existential Therapy, where I help clients truly grasp their relationships with themselves and the world around them. I bring in other therapeutic techniques and styles to individualize treatment to what each client needs and wants out of therapy.

So many times I hear people say, "I'm just tired. There's never enough time, money..." Life does not have to be a constant tug of war with obligations from marriage, children, work and so many other things pulling from every direction. What's driving you to continue adding more to the overwhelming obligations you already have? Sometimes, we need a little help to understand unhealthy habits and to create balance. But asking for help can be difficult. Will you take this opportunity to reshape your life in a way that works better for you and your loved ones?
