Have you found yourself feeling overwhelmed with life? Are you looking for a therapist who’s a real person with real feelings & emotions who understands that life is hard and can sometimes suck? Sometimes we just need someone to listen without judgement. Someone to help us work through the moments of “blah” feelings we all experience as humans. My goal as a therapist is to be exactly that for everyone I work with.

Please Note: I am not taking new clients at this time. Do you feel overwhelmed at times? Are your normal coping skills failing to help you with life events and transitions? Are you feeling depressed, anxious or lost? Are your relationships stressed and leaving you feeling alone? You do not need to struggle alone. Therapy can give you a place to pause and breathe, gain some clarity and calm, revive your coping skills and add new perspectives. It provides a supportive place where everyone feels listened to and understood. Often it leads to amazing change, healing and growth.

If you feel stuck, overwhelmed, confused, powerless, helpless to control life issues, a healthy first step toward realizing positive change in your life, is to invest in therapy. By discovering your strengths, gifts, and unique perception, we can begin utilizing these attributes toward effective thoughtful problem solving and decision making behaviors.

People seek therapy for many different reasons. For some people, there are feelings of unhappiness that go back to childhood. For others, help is needed to cope with challenges that come up such as family conflict, parenting stress, grief and loss, feeling "stuck", or anxious. Through therapy, you will find a safe and supportive environment where you can explore the issues troubling you, and grow in your ability to address these issues.

I believe that life is a journey and that sometimes on that journey, we get lost and confused or we come up against obstacles that we have trouble getting around or we get entangled in traps and need help to get free. We can also have things happen to us that are difficult if not almost impossible to deal with alone. You may need someone to who can help you find your way or help you get around the obstacles or be released from the trap that has entangled you. Someone who has personal experience with the issues you are facing and can help you find your way back to a meaningful, fulfilling and productive life.

I look forward to working alongside you to help navigate the challenges that you are facing and to help you explore and uncover any beliefs or patterns that may have kept you safe at one point in time, but are no longer serving you.
