Services

Individual Therapy

 I work one-on-one with clients to help identify places where they feel stuck and explore ways to empower them to make positive changes. I create a safe and confidential space where my clients feel comfortable and supported to do the challenging yet, rewarding work, that is therapy.

Family Therapy

Families often struggle with boundaries, relationships and life transitions. Be it homework, bed time or curfews, some families need help implementing structure into their daily routine. We will also work on conflict resolution, behavior management and making family time a meaningful priority for your family


Client populations

Women

One of my specialties is working with women who are struggling to find their voice; women who feel that they cannot find time for themselves because they are too busy taking care of everyone else. If this sounds familiar, I can work with you to make yourself a priority without sacrificing the needs of your family or job. This not only strengthens you, but creates healthier relationships with those with whom you live and work.
I also work with women who are experiencing "empty nest syndrome." This can be an emotional time for many women and I have found that sorting through these lonely/empty/confusing feelings in therapy can be quite healing.

Teens (High School)/Young Adults ( Twenties plus)

This client age is one of my favorite groups; they can be sassy and funny, but also open to exploring hard feelings to help them feel better. Academic, peer, work and family stress can be very painful; my best days are when I can ease some of it for a struggling teen or young adult.

I strive to inform adolescents that they are not in this alone.  We all struggle with identity and many struggle with some form of anxiety or depression, but teens/young adults often don't realize this about their peers.  I help my clients realize that they are not alone in their struggles and that their peers who may look happy and perfect are also fighting personal demons despite their outer happy appearances. The mask can be deceiving, but talking about it can be healing.

LGBTQIA+ Community

I work with teens and adults who are exploring their sexual orientation and/or gender identity. For adolescents whose developmental task is literally that of finding their identity and forming their sense of self, confusion around their sexual orientation, assigned gender, or any combination, can be overwhelming, isolating, and lead to negative feelings and behaviors. I provide a safe and open space for clients to work through questions, concerns and fears relating to all aspects of their LGBTQIA+ experience.

I also work with parents and family members of the LGBTQIA+ community. It is not unusual for family members to experience a period of adjustment while exploring questions and complicated emotions. My goal is to support individuals and their families navigate what can be tricky waters. Everyone deserves to feel love and joy, it is my honor to be entrusted to help facilitate positive, healthy relationships within the family.
