Therapy is a place to identify which of your needs are not getting met and learn ways to meet them. It is a place to learn new skills for solving that problem - of feeling overwhelmed and powerless, unheard and misunderstood, resentful and lonely - and to learn how to use your own strengths that you already have, so that you can take care of yourself and your relationships. Using evidence-based treatments, we will work together to equip you with a roadmap and other tools so that you can make decisions from a place of strength and live the life that is meaningful to you.

I specialize in working with children, teens, college age, adults, and couples.
Sometimes life can be confusing or overwhelming for us or those we love. Are you or your loved one dwelling on negative "what-if" scenarios? Do you wake up and wonder where your life is going? Do you have a to-do list a mile long and feel guilty when you cannot stay on top of things? Are you and your loved one constantly fighting or struggling to connect? My passion lies in working with individuals and couples who are seeking confidence, safety, connection, and a future. If you are feeling stuck, purposeless, or alone, my desire is to walk alongside you and help you discover that your journey leads to hope.

It's easy to feel stressed, depressed, anxious, or like you are just generally unable to cope with everything. Circumstances in life can lead people to feeling unvalued, unheard, and overwhelmed. I use a holistic approach to help my clients get back to feeling their best mentally, physically, and spiritually. I want everyone to feel like they are in control of their lives and able to cope with the things that come their way. My goal as a therapist, and as a person, is to always make sure that everyone feels welcomed, valued, and accepted.

I have worked with clients with various life problems such as work stress, family conflict, anxiety, depression, trauma symptoms, and parenting problems. While I have the most experience working with teenagers, in recent years I have branched out to work with adults and younger children. I have helped clients identify, process, and move past what is blocking them from living the life they want. I come from a therapeutic style of compassion, understanding, educating, and not judging. I believe that we all need to have a kind, unbiased, and honest person with whom we can trust to help where we need it sometimes.

I am a counseling psychologist. I work with families, couples, young adults and adults. I have over 15 years of experience with evidence-based family therapy. My approach to families, couples and individuals is strength-based and respect-based. This means appreciating that struggles we face as individuals and in relationships are not typically due to maliciousness but are part of the human struggle to do what we believe and feel is best for ourselves and our families--even if misguided. Unfortunately, we frequently misinterpret the intentions of others and experiences which impacts how we react--this can be changed and relationships can be repaired.
