Do you feel like your feelings are holding you back; stopping you from being the person you were before? Have you been trying hard to stop thinking negatively about yourself but you just do it anyway? I know how that can be: the self-defeating thoughts, perceptions of "I am not good enough" flowing constantly in your head, the feelings of guilt and unworthiness. These thoughts and feelings can be terrifying. With integrated approaches, it's time to let go of feeling stuck and trapped in them I ...

My care is trauma-informed, mindfulness-based, and weaves together tools from other evidenced-based methods including CBT and ACT. To empower my clients towards change a...

I know that starting therapy can be stressful and intimidating a process. It doesn’t have to be ! All people strive to reach their fullest potential and heal from the past.

I take a person-center approach and focus on building a comfortab...

I also believe in balancing acceptance and change, both in the work and in the therapeutic relationship itself. I strive to create a validating and nonjudgmental space for...
A friend recently asked me how to find a therapist who would really fit for her sister. She wanted someone more extroverted than introverted, and realized that this isn't always the easiest thing to pick up from a blurb on the the interwebs. So what are some of those strange little tells that let a person know that they might be kindred spirits? I am here to help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and all the normal sorts of things that bring people to therapy in the first pla...
