Individual Therapy

When life throws you a curveball

Life circumstances are always changing and can create feelings of overwhelm, fear, grief, loneliness, sadness, anxiety, uncertainty, burnout, or feeling "off." Change can also be experienced as trauma or acute stress, or may trigger you to feel the experiences of earlier trauma(s) or cumulative stress. Previous ways of coping may not longer work.

Therapy can be the lifejacket that keeps you afloat in rough waters so you can return to a more steady state.

Who we each are today is a product of our unique lived experiences & circumstances. Past struggles, successes, choices, & strengths become part of our internal fabric, impacting our distinct experience of & coping with today's challenges. Through this lens & at a pace that's right for you, we explore how you’re feeling today and how you would prefer to feel. We work together to strategize a plan to help you feel better.

My approach to therapy is highly individualized and it works! Beyond getting to know you, I strive to "get" you. With a toolkit of evidenced-based treatments to draw from, as well as attuned and empathic listening, and a trusting relationship, I will help you to improve coping, regain a sense of control & find a path forward.

We'll even smile along the way. Really we will!

My clients are adults and young adults. I specialize as a therapist for health care professionals, medical professionals, first responders and other therapists.

My approach

Mutual trust and respect is at the core of the therapist/client relationship.

Therapy is focused on helping you adjust, cope and improve your quality of life in a way that works for you, the client.

I meet you where you are and do not judge you. Together we clarify and prioritize your goals for therapy and develop a plan for moving forward. If you are in crisis, the immediate work is on crisis resolution and restoring your functioning.

My philosophy

Don't be nervous or hesitant.

I believe quality therapy should be accessible to all individuals.

I believe all individuals deserve to be safe and not judged without hiding parts of themselves they do not wish to hide.

I believe all individuals are deserving of respect and dignity.

I believe in the resilience and courage of humans. I believe that at our core, we are more the same than we are different before circumstances change our experiences.

I believe in the power of a trusted and safe therapeutic relationship to help restore hope and healing.

Simply put

Don’t be nervous. I am safe, trustworthy & do not judge. Clients say I’m easy to talk to. I invite you to take the first step today. Reach out to schedule a free, no obligation phone conversation. We can talk, get to know each other & I can answer your questions.

My practice is inclusive of all individuals and values diversity, equity and inclusion.
