Life is hard, and sometimes, these situations bring us to the brink. Sometimes we struggle with conditions that make life hard to see where to go next. In therapy, we will become a team to help navigate these troubled waters and help you find a life worth living. We focus on changing behaviors that are currently not working, and develop new ones that bring relief and get you back to the level of functioning you desire.

Therapy is a journey towards self exploration and understanding. While life can be messy, hard, and even painful; therapy serves as a tool to navigate the unknown and promote peace and healing. Seeing clients heal from their past, embrace their future, and accept themselves as the wonderful humans they are is what makes therapy such a special experience.

No matter what life hands us, it can be helpful to have someone to act as a sounding board, listening ear, or simply walk alongside us. Mental health means something different for everyone and I encourage you to explore what that might mean for you. Helping people navigate the ins and outs of their lives is powerful, rewarding, and inspiring.

Empathy, honesty, and deep respect are all essential to creating a supportive environment where you can feel truly heard and valued. Partnering with someone who shows up by being fully present, adapting each approach to meet your unique needs can lay the foundation towards empowerment, helping you to take charge of your healing. Everyone is worthy of a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore thoughts and emotions, and gain insight into life’s diverse challenges. Some of the most rewarding aspects of counseling is witnessing individuals discover their inner strength and resilience and being a part of their journey towards a more fulfilling life.

Everyone is capable of healing, growth, and change, but no one should have to seek this alone. Therapy is a space where you get to come as you are and find support and understanding as you uncover, discover, and explore areas in need of your attention. Each session is specific to who you are, as you are the author of your story.
Virtual therapy can be a convenient, accessible, and flexible way to dedicate time to yourself, all while providing you the ability to meet privately in a space that is comfortable and familiar to you.

While life is full of broken relationships, unfulfilled expectations, and loss, I believe there is hope and redemption in each person’s story. Therapy does not always have to be serious and stoic. I love to connect with my clients through laughter and genuine emotions.

Life can be full of chaos, confusion, pain, and suffering. Feeling lost is a feeling we can all relate to, and often fear can appear louder than courage. Learning how to increase connection, vulnerability, and purpose can help lessen fear, anxiety, chaos, and confusion. Lessening the fear leads to purpose and healing. Learning how to articulate fear-based feelings helps foster connection.

Therapy can be seen as a scary thing. People come to counseling because they want something different in their lives. Counseling is a process by which we will work together to identify and work on any issues you bring to our sessions, and my role is to assist you with this process. My hope is to provide a safe, supportive, nonjudgmental environment that provides opportunity for growth and self-discovery.
