TELEHEALTH/VIDEO appointments. Seeking help for our own negative thoughts and behaviors is a difficult thing to do.  Thank you for your bravery.  I have been a psychotherapist for over 25 years.  During that time I have worked with a variety of problems in a variety of settings.  I look at each person I interact with as an individual, with unique gifts and stories.  I would love to know more about your story and work with you in conquering whatever problem you feel is blocking you from having a full and rewarding life.

Looking for increased energy, motivation, happiness? Stressors, life changes, or past trauma can hold you back from being at peace in the present moment. I work individually with children, adolescents and adults on a variety of stressors. Sessions can include, emotional release techniques, shifting ways of thinking that get in the way, and practices of learning how to live in the present moment. I also work with families and couples on goals such as, but not limited to: conflict, communication, parenting or intimacy. I assess the family's relational dynamics, and come up with a plan to move the couple/family toward their goals.

When everything falls apart you are not alone. Often reaching out for help can be the first step in renewing, replenishing, and revitalizing your life. Psychotherapy is one way to gain the strength and support you need. Many of us suffer quietly with feelings of hopelessness and loss. Therapy can bring life back into focus and helps us regain our sense of balance.

Are you overwhelmed by life’s struggles, trauma, relationship or attachment issues? Maybe you have been wondering about autism or ADHD as a potential diagnosis? Do you have questions about gender or sexuality, and a general need to examine where you exist within an increasingly challenging society and how you are impacted by it? These are the issues that I enjoy navigating with my clients as we find a new, unmasked, comfortable way of living freely. If you are hurting and do not know where to start I can help. If you feel that you are at the end, we can find a new beginning.

I believe your well being is all about you - your progress, your presence, your potential, and your peace. The pace of life can be hectic and often disorienting even for the healthiest person. We all bump up against obstacles and events that cause us to pause, reflect and assess the road we are traveling. Sometimes the moment is brief. At other times it is protracted and complicated. I'm here to explore life's turns and detours so that, together, we may restore these moments for a useful purpose.

Do you find that there are unhelpful patterns in your life that you keep repeating? Maybe it's multiple unhealthy relationships, or self-sabotaging behaviors. Do you struggle with an unrelenting inner critic that makes every perceived failure feel catastrophic? Perhaps you're in the midst of a big change or transition in your life and you're struggling to adjust. You're most likely looking for a therapist who is warm and compassionate, who understands your specific struggle, and is able to help you make sense of the swarm of thoughts circling in your head.

The clients I work with are seeking to identify, self-determine, and develop processes to help them manage their struggles and issues. They utilize their natural supports, gifts, and graces to work toward their chosen goals and the changes they seek to make in their lives. Each human being is unique and their life experiences are unique to them. I believe everyone deserves to be treated with dignity, respect and exist in a judgment free space when working on mental health or life challenges.

If you're visiting this site, chances are you're not doing so well these days. Feeling out of sorts, stuck or overwhelmed are symptoms that something in your life is out of balance. Finding the right therapist can be a daunting task. The key is finding someone with whom you feel comfortable. The therapeutic relationship is one of the most important factors in determining a successful outcomes in therapy. This involves the client feeling safe and trusting of the therapist while he/she explores emotional vulnerabilities and painful thought processes.

You may feel stuck in stress, sadness, trauma, numbness, or isolation. Perhaps you struggle to maintain relationships, or find yourself in a cycle of unhealthy ones. You may question your own worth and struggle to communicate your thoughts and feelings with those in your life. Whatever your struggles, you are hoping for more peace of mind, connection, confidence, and compassion. Just like our bodies heal from scrapes and bruises, we are also built to heal emotionally and mentally. Counseling is a great option for working toward these goals.

As you transition from childhood to adulthood it can feel incredibly overwhelming, especially for many people with ADHD or other neurodivergence. Navigating school, anxiety, family relationships, friendships, trauma, and all the other stressors that life throws at you can feel impossible to take on alone. Adding in the stressors that can come with finding your true identity or navigating difficulties with attention can make it even harder. Maybe you're a teen trying to navigate the social stressors that come with this stage of life, or a young adult trying to make your way in the world.

Therapy is a place where you can come as you are, process life's challenges, relationship struggles, seasons of doubt, feeling stuck or sad, anger, or maybe even ambivalence. In this space we can walk together through past trauma, areas of hurt or betrayal, and life transitions to pursue healing, restoration, and authenticity. Together we can notice attachment wounds and past events that may be continuing to shape your narrative and work toward interpersonal, inner growth and acceptance. Healing takes work and having support as you wade through those deep waters allows us to face fear and pain with bravery and create resilience.
