Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.
I don't really have a particular population I focus on. I want to work with everybody! That said, I have a great deal of experience with adults with persistent and severe mental illness, adolescents with oppositional and defiant behavior, and clients seeking help from their local psychiatrist. I start every session with "Tell me what's going on with you. What can I do to help?" Then we go from there. I end every session with "Was that helpful?" I haven't heard "No" yet.

Are you feeling a sense of lack of direction, worry, or stress? Unsure how to handle current changes? or seeking to shape who you are? I specialize in working with individuals who are feeling anxious, worried, angry, lack of motivation or direction, loss of self-due to a change in work or relationships, and self-criticism and doubt.
I work primarily with clients who struggle with symptoms related to anxiety, depression, PTSD, and substance use disorders. I also work especially well with clients who have childhood and family relationship trauma, relationship issues, and adult children of immature/unwell/addicted parents. I work with clients 18-65, I have loved practicing therapy with adults from many different walks of life. Ideally, clients I work with are interested in learning, skills-based therapy and intensive therapy
