I've worked with people experiencing various difficulties, including anxiety, social anxiety, trauma, depression, life transitions, difficulty with trust, communication issues, difficulty with vulnerability, low self esteem, and low motivation.

College is hard! I remember how hard it was in so many ways. I'm honored to be a support to you through this important time in your life. I specialize in anxiety. I also work on post-trauma growth for those with a history of trauma.

I am heavily influenced by my studies in mindfulness medita...
My approach to therapy is holistic. I consider your culture, worldview, family practices, race/ethnicity, faith, sexual orientation, as well as other attributes that make you, YOU. I believe there is significant growth and beauty that comes through pain and challenges. That healing has much to do with grace and forgiveness, as does truth and accountability. I will provide guidance, or sometimes silent support to help you meet your goals and gain insight and resolution to what troubles you. The s...

MY APPROACH TO HELPING I help people who struggle with adult parent-child relationships. I help stop the vicious cycle of guilt, shame, and overly controlled behavior. My clients struggle as you do. My clients report a parent who ignored them literally. They tried everything they could to please the parent and get the parent to see them, but they never did. The feeling that they aren’t good enough is pervasive. Even in areas where they earn awards and respect, they worry that they will hear the...

Plagued by nagging self-doubts that say you aren’t good enough, strong enough, or smart enough, you wonder how anyone could really love you. Fearful that if other people knew the “real” you, they’d turn away. Bending and contorting yourself to be what others think you should be, you end up feeling anxious or depressed most of the time. And then there are those experiences that you don’t talk about. ...
