In-Person Appointments Avaliable! You strive to be the best, the best partner, the best parent, the best at the office, but you always feel like you fall short. Will life always be this chaotic and exhausting? Despite your best efforts, there never seems to be enough time in the day. After caring for so many others in your life, you struggle to care for yourself. You're constantly running on empty. Although you recognize the patterns in your life you don't want to repeat, you can't seem to stop the cycle. In the past, you've tried to make changes on your own, but nothing works long-term. You're stuck and not sure what to do next.

Is the thought of failing again stopping you dead in your tracks? You’re constantly doing for others but when it comes to yourself, you’re lost. You may not even know what your interests are now because the focus has been on everyone & everything else. You know what to do, but you aren’t doing it. You’ll be the biggest cheerleader for the people most important to you, but you don’t take your own advice. Having all-or-nothing tendencies has only gotten you so far. You want to be comfortable in your own body & would probably give anything to go back to that younger version of you that doesn't seem so bad now.

Are you feeling overwhelmed or bombarded by negative thoughts? Stuck in old patterns and ways of reacting? Struggling with your spirituality? Or maybe you’re just feeling empty inside. Whatever it is, I am here to listen. Together we will explore the internal and external obstacles which keep you feeling disconnected from yourself and the world around you. I believe that each of us contains a capable inner healer. Sometimes we just need extra support to access them. I’d like to help you grow your capacity to show up fully for your life.

When we experience chaos and difficulty in our external worlds, our internal worlds often match the everyday crises we have “learned to live with”. Leading us to feel frustrated, confused, alone, and wishing there was a way out. What if I told you another path was possible? That instead of merely “getting by”, or masking your pain, that you could tap into resources to live a more confident and Self lead life? You deserve a space to explore the things that just are causing you frustration, without fear of judgement.

Struggling to make sense of life and how to continue on? Circumstances have become overwhelming and hard to navigate day to day. You spend days in bed avoiding the things that used to bring you joy. Or it takes everything in you to do simple tasks. Is it hard to believe life can't get better than this? There is hope that life can become fulfilling again and that each day isn't just another task on a list.

I help people transform their lives from the inside out with psychodynamic therapy. Most of my patients experience significant breakthroughs.

I've helped many people profoundly improve their lives and I'll be honored to help you too.

Sometimes, it's overwhelming trying to 'keep up' or 'fix' things on your own. Maybe you don't know exactly what you need, but you know you want to feel better. There may be things from your past that you have tried to move past, but they just keep creeping up again. I strive to come alongside individuals and families of all ages to help them overcome challenges, find meaning and joy in life, experience renewed strength, find true hope, and become mentally and emotionally healthy individuals. My core methods are evidence based and I keep a wholistic perspective- recognizing people as physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual beings.

Are you someone who is tired of the cost of abandoning yourself and your story to accommodate others' expectations? Are you ready to do the work of facing the way your trauma history has wired your body into a chronic series of reactions (fight/flight/freeze/fawn, etc.) and discover how to free yourself from the past to LIVE in the present?

Making a choice to embark on a journey towards healing takes courage. Talking to someone about infidelity, sex, and addiction takes even more. These topics can cause isolation, shame, and hopelessness, whether it's love and relationship issues, infidelity, pornography addictions, or sexually compulsive behaviors. Additionally, partners, spouses, or family members may experience trauma, grief, or isolation caused by these behaviors. There is hope and a path that can lead to a healthy and fulfilling life, leading to inner peace and understanding.

Are you someone who feels like nothing is working? Someone who feels like no matter what they try, their pain seems to keep getting worse? Pain like anxiety, sadness, low self esteem. Or obsessions, bad body image, trauma, guilt? Pain does not discriminate, and neither should treatment. I love working with people who are too smart for their own good. People who know what they are struggling with, but just can't move past it.

Coming home after another long day and the anger comes out toward your significant other. Driving to work and you’re already fuming because of all the incompetent drivers on the road. White knuckling it as you wrestle with the urges to use your substance of choice – even after saying for the 10th time that you’re going to quit. That feeling of anxiety or panic you get when you’re around that feared situation. It’s not just that, you worry constantly about all the “what ifs” and waiting for the other shoe to drop. You want to actually believe you can feel calmer, end your addiction, and that the good things in life can stay good.

Being a parent of a child with special needs is one of the most challenging lives to live. Through the daily chaos and the appointments, don’t forget you. Your wants, needs and dreams matter. Together, we will partner to acknowledge the triumphs and process the trials. You will learn how to grieve the life that you thought you would have and move forward to fully living the life that you’ve got. I help my clients with parenting strategies and resources along with daily coping skills. We may identify triggers and process past trauma that impacts you as a parent and work on your anxiety, depression, or other mental health diagnoses.

When you first started dating, it was all laughs, flowers, and romantic nights out together. Now your Saturday nights revolve around watching TV while you each scroll through your cell phones. You haven’t exchanged more than a few glances and the only discussion today revolved around carpool schedules and reminders to buy more milk tomorrow. You didn’t know it was possible to feel lonely while not technically being alone. You try to practice gratitude and remind yourself that things are ok, but deep down you know that your relationship could be so much more. You want to feel appreciated, connected, and lit up again.
