It’s normal to feel ambivalent about recovery. Maybe you’ve found yourself looking for relief, but afraid of all recovery entails. Perhaps your experience has been minimized by those around you and now you tell yourself “it’s not bad enough” to warrant help. It can feel daunting to think of overhauling your life or giving up something that, at times, still provides comfort. I get it. I know what it’s like to be torn between the comfort of what is familiar, in a time that seems rife with chaos and tragedy, and the desire to have a life that feels purposeful and expansive, that is more than “just getting by.”

Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to witness healing and transformation, even when hope seemed far away. I am in awe of the resilience found in each of us and I believe that everyone has an inherent wisdom within that, when fostered, can lead to a happy, fulfilling life. As a therapist, I see my role as providing a safe, non-judgmental space for individuals to explore and identify their own personal strengths and use them to achieve the goals and dreams they have set for themselves.

We work with people, not labels. It’s about you, a person. And us, people. It becomes about us working together for your goals, whatever those are-we can help.

How often have you tried to think yourself out of a feeling? Right? Doesn't work! Together we can figure out how & why you think, feel & behave the way you do. You can't think your way out of feeling unhappy & dissatisfied. We can help you work through your barriers to a better place.

We all go through life struggles, which we are not able to handle on our own. Therapy is a very helpful tool to get the help and guidance that you, your family or typical support network may not be able to provide. My job as a psychotherapist is to work collaboratively with clients to help you heal and grow. My approach is gentle and direct, and while I have confidence in my knowledge about therapy, I treat every client as an individual and learn from every person who works with me. My clients would say they trust my intuition, pay close attention, tell them the truth and empower them with ongoing effective strategies for healing.

After battling addiction for many years, I discovered a new way to live through psychotherapy, the 12-steps, physical fitness, & spiritual practice. Ramtha said, "Your greatest accomplishment in life will be living through it." Today, living is my way of life. Today, I can look at myself in the mirror without shame, guilt, sadness, & self-hatred. I can appreciate my past & not run from it. I can form meaningful loving relationships with others because I have first learned how to love myself. I have learned how to overcome obstacles and cope with worry, anxiety, & depression. I have learned to enjoy every moment, good or bad...

Welcome. I imagine you find yourself considering therapy because at times you struggle with feelings that are overwhelming. You may be experiencing confusion or frustration because certain relationships are consistently challenging or you feel stuck in patterns of behavior that limit your ability to achieve your goals. When we experience these things it makes it difficult to feel connected to ourselves and others. This lack of connection can be lonely and distressing. Some of us have used drugs, alcohol, food, relationships, self-criticism and other self-defeating behaviors to numb the pain of disconnection.

We can lose touch with ourselves for a variety of reasons. Sometimes the symptoms of our issues disconnect us from ourselves, our environment, and our loved ones. I help clients reconnect with who they are, what they need, and what is most important to them. In sessions, I help clients work through trauma, addiction, chronic pain, chronic health, personal development, relationships, limiting beliefs, black-and-white thinking, judgments, and self-compassion. As a somatic therapist and yoga instructor, I help clients cultivate mindfulness and meditation skills, which can be a critical part of the therapeutic process.

We all long to feel connected, known, and loved. And when we don’t, it can create tremendous suffering. In response to our pain, we adapt and learn ways to cope- ultimately seeking to make intolerable feelings tolerable. But our coping strategies disconnect us from who we truly are and come at a high cost. I offer a therapeutic lifeline that empowers you to claim your inherent worth and inner knowing. I deeply respect and want to nurture the wisdom you hold inside yourself. You may worry that you are too flawed, but together we can rediscover your worthiness and the inherent beauty within you.

I'm a trauma-expert helping sensitive hearts, scapegoats, and empaths make sense of emotions and relationships and feel more embodied & empowered. Do you struggle with overwhelming emotions or interpersonal relationships? You may be feeling scared, enraged, or even hopeless. Strong emotions can be frustrating and disorienting leading you to shut down. This makes it difficult to communicate with others, leaving you feeling even more alone. This pattern perpetuates a vicious cycle of shame & isolation. Maybe you've tried everything to feel better but when it doesn't work, you're left with more despair wondering if you'll ever be okay.
