Is your child or teen feeling stressed, anxious, and/or depressed? Does he/she need ways to cope with difficult thoughts, strong emotions, a life transition, and/or stressful social situations? Does he/she want to learn not only how to cope, but how to thrive? Or are you a young adult (18-25 years old) struggling with depression or anxiety? Do you need support as you work toward building a rich, meaningful life? Would you like help processing traumatic experiences? Expressive arts therapy and body-oriented therapy are especially useful when "words are not enough".

Current Immediate Availability. It starts so small. Some frustration here, some outbursts there, avoiding situations that trigger uncomfortable emotions, occasional episodes of sadness or anxiety. Gradually it gets worse. Suddenly you find little joy in life, you don’t recognize yourself in the mirror, and you are spending the days feeling stuck in the intensity of these emotions and thoughts that control your life. Maybe you are watching your child experience these things and are feeling helpless seeing them struggle. It is time for change, time for healing, but you just are not sure how or where to start.

You may be coming here as an adult looking for support to manage everything going on even though it looks like you have it all together from an outsider’s perspective. People tell you “you’re killing it” but you feel burnt out and lost. Maybe you’re a stressed out parent trying to help your child or teen manage their emotional well being and they will talk to anyone besides you as their parent. Perhaps, you’re at an earlier stage of parenting and are pregnant, in the adoption process or navigating postpartum, needing space to figure out what this new role means. You may have tried therapy before and had difficulty clicking with a therapist or have been looking for weeks, even months, to find someone who’s bio you connect with.

For children, external circumstances can be confusing and internal emotions can be overwhelming.
Viewing my role in clients’ lives as a privilege, I approach my work with warmth, candor, and a genuine belief in one's potential for growth. I provide therapy for individuals across the lifespan. Difficulties in adulthood often stem from longstanding patterns of relating to ourselves and others that are no longer serving us. Through greater awareness of these patterns and our internal emotional world, we are better able to cope and connect.

I offer real solutions for Communication, Anger, Depression, ADHD, Anxiety, PTSD. When we stress our reactivity leads to regressive and unhealthy coping behaviors. Unfortunately, the mental health field often uses diagnoses to label behavior when really what is needed is counseling around attachment, communication and various coping skills. You are not your diagnosis, and our therapeutic process includes removing or reducing stress and establishing a healthy, constructive coping strategy.
