You're successful in so many areas of your life, but you're struggling in one or more of your relationships. You're not sure if the problem is you or others. You feel like you're communicating effectively, but those around you don't seem to hear or fully get you. By all accounts you've mastered the good life in your career and other achievements, but sometimes your personal relationships don't reflect this as well as you want it to. How great would you feel if you could make some small, powerful shifts that would change everything?

Do you struggle with depression and anxiety? Is your mental health affecting your work, your family or your friendships? Do your thoughts seem to always fall into a negative loop of what could’ve been or what should be? Are you tired of laying awake at night unable to turn off your thoughts? Do you feel like you’re doing everything you’re suppose to but still wonder what’s missing? Could life be happier, more connected, less… miserable? If you identify with any of the above, you’re in the right place.

Hello and welcome! Finding a therapist is challenging and I commend you for getting here! If you feel at all curious, hopeful, or seen when reading this, I encourage you to schedule a free call. Being a human is hard! Meaning and contentment often seem elusive, especially in the world we live in today. Rather than telling you how to “fit in” to life, my role is to empower you to discover and pursue whatever you find fulfilling. If you’re the type of person who’s almost too self-aware but still struggles to make meaningful change or feel secure in relationships, I’ll probably be a good fit for you.

I specialize in working with adult survivors of narcissistic, borderline, or antisocial (psychopathic) parents. I also work with people struggling with partners who have these disorders. As a result of this work, I am also skilled in working with trauma. I can help you learn to live without fear, understand your emotions better, and manage your trauma symptoms instead of the managing you. Life is too short to live in fear, to be continually overwhelmed by your emotions, or to be stuck in toxic relationships. I can help you find your way out.

Psychotherapy is an art and a science. The art is the use of oneself combining the intuitive sense; the naturalness in expressing comfort and caring; the ability to relate to all people; and the comfort in self-disclosure. The science is the skills and techniques we learn and the knowing what techniques will be helpful in moving clients beyond their walls towards a healthier life

I'm especially passionate about working with people needing both pregnancy and perinatal mental health support with a specific interest in postpartum mood disorders. Parenthood is both a monumental and overwhelming part of life and I enjoy offering support and validation throughout the complicated and oftentimes arduous journey. In addition to my specialty in women's issues, I also have extensive experience treating adults with anxiety, depression, psychological trauma such as intimate partner violence as well as individuals experiencing difficult life transitions.

I stand firm in the belief that there is immense healing power in cultivating a space where you can be truly heard and unearth your most authentic self. My passion and drive as a therapist lies in nurturing this space so that you can make strides toward your personal goals, whatever they may be. Acknowledging the uniqueness of being human means tailoring therapy to meet each person where they’re at. This means I take an eclectic approach to therapy, pulling from a variety of modalities. I primarily take a person centered holistic approach rooted in somatic body-centered, emotion-focused therapy.

New couples are often reluctant to seek help. Be it stigma surrounding couple's therapy, or feeling like they have not been together "long enough," couples usually wait until resentment and unhappiness have grown to distressing levels before reaching out for help. According to relationship expert Dr. John Gottman, couples often endure an average of six years of unhappiness before seeking help. Why let years of resentment build up when you can spend that time strengthening your bond and finding new ways to overcome and adapt to life's inevitable conflicts?
