I believe that therapy can help people overcome challenges and heal from wounds, both old and new. I will use a variety of approaches to best fit your individual needs. Together, we can uncover your hidden strengths, overcome obstacles, and find your unlimited potential. I will help you gain insight into your current and past relationships and change repeating patterns and behaviors. I am committed to creating a safe environment where you can explore ways to shift and create change, and take charge of your life. Healing the past will allow you to move forward

Choosing a therapist is an important decision. Therapy tends to work best when there is a strong relationship between you and your therapist. My goal is to create an environment where you feel seen, heard, cared for, and understood. Processing your experiences in therapy helps to deepen self-awareness, and can positively impact your mood, functioning, and interpersonal relationships. The therapeutic process can be both challenging and rewarding, so the ideal client is one who is up to the challenge.

Many of us struggle with the core belief of "I'm not enough" or "I’m not good enough". This negative core belief plays out in romance, relationships, work and affects the simplest ways we carry ourselves throughout the day. Through therapy, we reconsider the old, worn-out, negative ways of thinking and feeling about ourselves and embrace a new truth. A truth (both authentic and strength-based) that gives us permission to see ourselves as whole beings who are inherently “Enough”. I work with people who are hurting and who need to show themselves more: kindness, compassion, trust, understanding, respect, belief, acceptance and love.

You have to feel better to get better. That may seem obvious, but it really isn't. When I begin to work with a new patient, I have two immediate goals: To get to know this person so we can determine if we're a good match; and if we are, to use my years of experience and skills to target current areas of damage and hurt. People come to therapy in pain — something or many things in their lives aren't working. Our job is to take a breath, appreciate your unique situation, understand when and how current problem(s) became unmanageable or toxic, and then find ways to feel better, more hopeful and clear about how to proceed back to life.

I believe that therapy works well when it is a collaborative process. Finding a therapist you trust is key, as I see the relationship between therapist and client as the foundation for positive change.

I am passionate about helping my clients to transform traumatic experiences and negative embodied beliefs that have kept them feeling stuck. I find that integrating clinical hypnosis into my practice is the fastest and most lasting way for my clients to achieve their goals. Whether your intention is to achieve greater self awareness, build stronger personal relationships, heal past wounds, or simply feel better, together we can collaborate to achieve your goals in therapy.

Does your depression work the graveyard shift? Do you act like it's your birthday every day? Does the idea of spending time with people you don’t know fill you with a desire to become fused to your couch? Is social media your coping strategy? I believe the best way to work together is to really get to know you. There’s room to talk about things that are challenging and whose music you’re vibing with, and everything in between. I provide a modern, customized therapeutic experience and my therapy style is person-focused and relaxed.
