I realize that no two people are the same and as such tailor my therapy to meet the specific needs of my clients. Whether you are struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, chronic illness, or any other issue, I will help you recognize underlying problems, fully realize your strengths, and adjust certain behaviors and thoughts to see things a different, healthier way.

My practice specializes in treating individuals, but brief family therapy is provided upon request for established clients.

I offer comprehensive services dealing with:

Most people will experience trauma in their lifetime whether it’s a car accident, abuse or neglect, the sudden death of a loved one, a violent criminal act, exposure to the violence of war, or a natural disaster. While many people can recover from trauma over time with the love and support of family and friends and bounce back with resiliency, others may discover effects of lasting trauma, which can cause a person to live with deep emotional pain, fear, confusion, or posttraumatic stress far after the event has passed. In these circumstances, the support, guidance, and assistance of a therapist is fundamental to healing from trauma. 

Have you been suppressing the memories of your traumas, so you won't have to deal with the pain but notice that the imprints of the trauma are beginning to show up in your relationships with others or even how you feel about yourself? I will help you begin to recover from your experiences by providing a safe and trusting environment and the tools you need to learn how to detoxify from the impact of trauma and to truly heal!

Is anxiety taking over your life? Does it feel like you can’t control it no matter how hard you try? Have you already tried therapy but found it ineffective? 

If this sounds like you, I’m confident I can help. My practice offers the most effective forms of treatment, to get the relief from anxiety that you deserve. I will help you to uncover the thoughts/feelings that may be triggering your anxiety, assist you in developing the ability to self-regulate your central nervous system, and learn how to gain control over your heightened physiological states that interfere with your life!

Are you feeling hopeless, isolated, and not your usual self?

• Do these thoughts often enter your mind? 
• I feel worthless and can’t do anything about it.
• I just want to be left alone. I hate who I am these days.
• I can’t stop crying, which makes me want to stay away from others.
• Nobody experiences my situation, so they wouldn't understand.
• I feel so incredibly lonely, and I don't see a way out of it.
• My life and the world around me are dark. I hate it, but I can’t change it.

In sessions, we will explore your thoughts/feelings, identify the core issues related to them, and work on reframing them, so that you can begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel and restore hope for your future!

Grief and bereavement aren’t light-hearted topics. Bereavement refers to the process of recovering from the death of a loved one, and grief is a reaction to any form of loss. Both encompass a wide range of emotions such as fear, anger, and deep, deep sadness.

The process of adapting to a loss can dramatically change from person to person, depending on his or her background, beliefs, relationship to the person who’s passed, and other factors.

Does your chronic illness leave you feeling exhausted and depleted? Do you feel left out when you can’t partake in common, daily activities? Do you often feel isolated, yet also feel the need to hide your condition from others?

A person’s well-being is reliant not just on their physical condition, but also on their mental health. While you may be struggling right now physically, please understand that you can thrive mentally and emotionally, despite your illness.
