My passion is helping those impacted by interpersonal trauma to begin healing towards recovery & wholeness. Those affected by traumatic events know the sense of grief, loss, shame, embarrassment, & judgment these issues often bring. I believe that unresolved traumas from negative life experiences are the primary source of issues such as depression, anxiety, relationship & self-esteem challenges, interpersonal conflict, & identity issues. My approach is one of compassion, strength, integrity, & authenticity. I offer a calm nonjudgmental environment for clients to develop courage & discover their resilience to heal & thrive.

I firmly believe in the value of the therapeutic relationship, in the value of promoting a facilitative therapeutic climate, and in upholding scientifically sound and ethical professional standards. My philosophy is that I will meet you where you are. After all, this is your journey. I hope that I can be alongside you, empowering you to experience yourself more fully, as a connected and autonomous being.

Life is full of many unexpected changes and challenges. I believe that when someone is experiencing a difficult life event, there is the opportunity for growth. But all too often, this event can consume and control us. If you are looking at this site, my guess is that you can relate to these words, and are seeking the help and support to be able to move forward in a positive and fulfilled way. I offer an empathic, supportive and non-judgemental approach to therapy with the goal of helping you, the individual, feel both secure and confident to make the changes that you desire.

A client once told me, “Finding the right therapist is like finding the right boyfriend,” and while therapy isn’t intended to be a long-term commitment, there are some similarities, including the need for trust, safety and compatibility. Clients often share with me things that they don’t tell anyone else, and it is important to find the right fit – someone you trust who has the skills to help you work through your specific struggles. I have been working in the field for over 20 years, and see adults (ages 18+) in individual counseling.

Are you tired of working hard in therapy for months or years without seeing results? If only you could move past your past, process childhood hurts or that recent abusive relationship, or recover from the memories that haunt you at night. You may have become perfectionistic, people pleasing, or overly fearful, afraid of everything. Perhaps your mood has suffered, and your self-esteem is non-existent. Maybe it feels that no one understands and now that you think about it, there's so much confusion about your thoughts and feelings, you're lacking life direction. There's a lot and you're not sure where to start!
