During any stage of life we are faced with challenges of many kinds. And these trials can keep anyone in the dark, not realizing that hope can be found. If you're someone who is trying to figure out who you are in the world, trying to find their way, or who just needs a solid connection with a partner; if you recognize a problem and a longing for change or struggling with overwhelming thoughts and emotions that keep you pushed away, leaving you in the dark, then you’re not alone and I’m here to help. I believe creating a strong connection is a major step towards healing . My approach to creating a therapeutic bond is person-centered and strength-based. As a family systems therapist, I long to understand how our present growth challenges are shaped by our history of connections. With that new awareness, we can pave the way for positive changes in healing. The key to any therapeutic process is a successful connection within the therapist/client relationship. It is important for the journey to have a therapist who can provide a safe space for your story to be heard and the skills to harness inner strength. It would be a joy to speak with you and to explore this journey together if I may be the right fit.

To be human is to experience the ups and downs that life has to offer. I'm here to help you overcome and thrive! My goal is to help you feel heard, understood, supported, and validated so that you can do your best work to make progress towards your goals. Whatever we are holding back or we aren't saying has power over us. That's what keeps us stuck, unhappy, and unfulfilled. It's time to take the power back! As humans, we all experience emotional challenges at home, work, or in the relationships we share with others. I help people recognize what’s not working and empower them to seek change. You deserve people in your life that value you, consider you, and make you a priority. This often starts with valuing and prioritizing yourself. Stepping out and doing something different takes courage. Let’s take the next steps together. I look forward to hearing from you!

A lot happens in life to lead someone to seek therapy. Life transitions, moments that feel overwhelming, relationship conflict.

I look forward to meeting you and potentially working with you!
