You've been successful at achieving all the things, but that doesn't reflect how you feel internally. Your anxiety feels unmanageable and you want to understand how you can live your life with more ease and clarity. You notice that you attract similar patterns or people, and struggle with communication, setting boundaries, or navigating conflict in your relationships. You're ready to experience relief and uncover the root cause behind your struggles. In therapy, we’ll unpack your story to understand what's keeping you stuck and help you work towards an intentional and fulfilling life - whatever that looks like to you. I support women struggling with anxiety, self esteem, life transitions, and other areas relating to women's issues. I take an active & collaborative approach in therapy. I’m not going to just focus on the symptoms being presented - I want to understand the root cause behind your struggles and genuinely get to know you as a human. My commitment is to provide a space where you can show up as your authentic self. I'll maintain a balance of supporting you and challenging you to make positive, sustainable changes for yourself. We’ll explore how you can implement new tools to navigate your emotions and gain confidence within. You can book a free 15 minute consult through my website today.

I work with a wide range of clients who seek support on their quest to live more intentional, authentic, and whole-hearted lives. I support the overworked professional struggling with stress management, burnout, imposter syndrome, or the search of their true passions. Or a new parent struggling with the transition to parenthood and one's changing identity. Or an individual experiencing relationship challenges, including communication style differences, expectations for the future, or looking for love. I am also well-suited to support family of origin or coming of age challenges, as well as anxiety and depression. I provide my clients with warm, competent, and nonjudgmental support. I ask thoughtful questions and take the client on a journey of deepened self-discovery so that they can uncover solutions and insights uniquely right for them. I am a strength-finder, pattern recognizer, and enjoy offering 'food for thought' for contemplation between sessions. Please reach out for a consultation call to see if we'd be a good fit! If for whatever reason we aren't, I'm happy to help point you in the right direction so that you can find the support you are looking for.

Therapy is a partnership, and we will work collaboratively to achieve your goals. I believe in providing a compassionate and nonjudgmental space for you to process and grow. Everyone’s needs are different therefore I take a highly individualized approach when working with you. My background as a community organizer has also taught me that community care is self-care, and that social justice work is also healing work. Systemic oppression impacts our lives in many ways, and I invite you to unpack those issues in our sessions. The healing that comes from the therapist client relationship is powerful, but for POC, LGBTQIA+ folks, and people living with a disability it can be hard to find someone who gets it. I take a strength-based approach and believe that through compassion for ourselves and our lived experiences we can have a life filled with deep connection and meaning. I am so honored to be invited to walk this path with you. I look forward to connecting and will be in touch within one to two business days. Please feel free to inquire about sliding scale options. I also offer immigration evaluations for political asylum, VAWA, U-visa, etc cases. Please reach out to inquire about pricing and the process.

In our time together, we will explore how the challenges you've faced in the past, and those you're facing in the present, affect the ways in which you feel, think, and act. Together, we will identify patterns that adversely affect your progress, and identify tangible strategies for change. And we will find ways to enhance your connections to others and understanding of yourself so that the changes you make will last. I believe you will experience me as genuine, curious, and direct. We will likely laugh a lot as we challenge old assumptions and create new ways of approaching problems. That said, the work we do in therapy is serious; in our work, you will experience acceptance and connection that will make it easier to talk about hard things. It's essential that you find a therapist with whom you feel comfortable and understood. I'm happy to provide a free 10 minute consultation where we can get to know one another and decide whether we would be a good fit therapeutically.

I am warm, direct and non-pathologizing, helping clients seek practical solutions in the present to deal with challenging problems. My focus is to seek the deeper meaning inherent in problems using humor and honesty. I have strong belief in the strength of human beings and their ability to change and heal. The majority of my clients complete their work in ten sessions. For persons with more complex histories, e.g., trauma, we will work until we are done. I draw from a multitude of therapeutic modalities including cognitive behavioral, Jungian, solution-focused, family systems, and work in a collaborative model. Clients are sometimes given practical homework assignments to experiement with trying new behaviors to get different results. My clients have an unusually wide range of issues, from the very simple to the extremely complex. In addition to being a lifetime learner, a wife, mother, and community social worker, my clients have taught me to remain curious and open to new ways of working.

Do you desire more joy in your life? Would you like to learn how to be your own healer and trust your intuition vs. living life from fear? Life may be painful, but you needn’t suffer or “feel stuck.” There is a way to live life to the fullest without being attached to emotions. Intuitive psychotherapy is where the therapist uses their own intuition in the healing process. Clients also learn how to develop and trust their intuition through specialized somatic and inner child work interventions. I believe in empowering my clients to trust their intuition. The collaborative process of cultivating insight involves a delicate balance of deep listening, constructive feedback, and awareness building. Integrating a whole-person approach, my goal is to help you move toward positive change and greater balance in life. I look forward to working with you. I have two supervision spots available for LPC associates.

I tend to focus both on your emotions and your thoughts. You will do most of the talking, but you will get a genuine reaction from me. My experience includes over 30 years in practice.
