Life and relationships can be difficult and messy. At times, help is necessary to find clarity and direction as we move toward the healthiest version of ourselves. My goal as a therapist is to provide a space where you feel safe, seen, and heard as we work together to address the issues which brought you into counseling. Building on professional and personal life experiences, I engage in counseling collaboratively with acceptance for who and where you are while building a therapeutic relationship which becomes a catalyst for change. I utilize an eclectic theoretical approach which best meets the needs of each individual.

I believe that people have amazing abilities to overcome the obstacles in their lives, to learn from their experiences and create a life in accordance with their values. My role as your therapist is to help facilitate your process of achieving your goals. I have a direct style that I mix with a sense of humor. I like to get down to work. Therapy isn't always fun but it can be life changing and I consider it an honor to be a part of your journey. Areas of special interest to me are depression/anxiety, trauma, stress, divorce, transitions, grief, and relationship concerns. I also offer intensive EMDR sessions up to 3 hours.

I believe that you can have a great life no matter the issues and feelings you currently have. This possibility may be hard to imagine now, but that is what I help you do. My job is to help you clarify what you want and then to achieve this. We all have a "wise mind" and heart in us. The wise mind can become obscured by stress and circumstance, but this is what you come to therapy to discover. With encouragement and support, you can learn to trust your path and solve whatever your current problems are. I work with motivated people who want to improve their lives.

In my 11 years of experience as a counselor, I understand how challenging it can be to ask for help. My goal is to create a safe and warm environment for clients who are going through challenges.

I believe humans are built to survive - even the most grueling situations when hope feels lost or emptiness prevails. Perhaps we are forced to deal with things we cannot control or did not foresee. Sometimes surviving means we adapt in ways that don't serve us in the long run. This is when we need someone to journey into and out of the darkness with us. Whether it is your past that won’t get out of the way, current relationships that wane, a loss that bogs you down, depression and anxiety that run your life, or a trauma you can’t seem to shake, neurotherapy may be an option for you. Neurotherapy is Neurofeedback + Talk Therapy.

It is a courageous act to seek out healing in the form of psychotherapy and allow someone to witness the journey. I honor whatever brought you to the place of looking for a therapist that will fit your needs, and I welcome the parts of you that may feel unsure of the process or resistant. As a trauma therapist, my focus is understanding the body and mind and how they act on our behalf to navigate relationships and the world. Trauma work is about finding more flexibility and ease in that process. My goal with clients is to build a trusting relationship in an environment where exploring these dynamics feels accessible.

I approach my work with the belief each of us deserves to be seen and heard. For many of us, the most important thing in life is to feel connected in a healthy and supportive way by those we care about. I have spent the last few years working with clients with histories of trauma incurred through relationships, be they family, romantic, platonic and/or professional. The work clients and I do together focuses on processing the impact of these relationships, development of coping skills to deal with current behaviors and moving forward with a healthier, well-balanced life.

Coming to counseling does not mean you are broken, it means you have made a courageous choice to heal. I see humans as extraordinary beings who have the capacity to look inward to find the places most in need of love, compassion, and acceptance. Together, we create the world in which you will shine the brightest. Looking at yourself through a holistic lens where we connect the mind, body, an spirit, you can heal yourself. This modality offers an efficient and effective process to healing that is extraordinary. In November of 2022, I hosted my first Women's Healing and Empowerment Yoga Therapy workshop. It was so magical! Join me!

I love helping individuals from various backgrounds obtain clarity about who they are, what they need, what has been holding them back, and then find ways to move forward and truly thrive. As a therapist who operates from a fundamentally existential perspective, I encourage my clients to identify their values and understand what gives them a sense of meaning, joy, and peace. If you are my client, I might gently challenge you to ask yourself not only “how do I make this change”, but also “why do I want to make it?”

It is common for people to say therapy hasn’t helped much and in many cases has even made things worse. Understandably, this increases people’s fear and doubt about therapy being able to help them. I find that most therapy is ineffective and most therapist are poorly trained. Because of this, I have been deeply committed to becoming a much better therapist providing the most modern and effective therapeutic approaches. The people I work with regularly report more significant energy, relief, and sense of lightness. They also tend to share that the process was quick, effective, and enjoyable.
