Life often doesn’t go as we expect. This can be painful, especially when  frustration and grief begins to overwhelm us or leads us to question our  identity, and purpose. It takes courage to acknowledge this within  ourselves, and even more courage to share this with another person.  Looking for a counselor is an important first step; no matter what stage  of life you’re in, taking this initiative is a sign of strength.

I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, post-traumatic responses, interpersonal or relational difficulties, and grief and loss.  Midlife transitions, early childhood trauma, abuse, and neglect are particular areas of focus within my practice. I consider it an honor to walk with each client, recognizing that therapy requires trust and can  sometimes feel confusing or messy. Whether you have reached a point of  crisis, or simply hope to become a more self-aware and integrated  person, I am available via phone, email, or my secure portal if you feel we might be a good fit.
