Clarity, Direction, & Growth for Adults ready For Change
You’re Tired of anxiety making all your decisions (or indecisions) and want to make real changes that actually stick.
You feel guilty or ashamed, stuck in the same thought spiral day-in and day-out. You’re tired of feeling judged, most of all by yourself. I work with adults that know there’s something off in their lives, but don’t know the direction they’d like to go.
Working with me helps you reconnect with what’s most important so that you can find direction, feel more confident in your decisions, and create a meaningful, fulfilling life.
Get to the root of your concerns So You Can Confidently Move Forward.
You know something’s off, but aren’t quite sure what it means and what to do about it. You’re looking for a new perspective and approach.
You haven’t quite figured out the work and relationship balance. You’ve had losses in your life and are carrying some unresolved grief.
Maybe you’re still wrestling with the remnants of a dysfunctional family and the ways it now impacts your life.
Therapy is different from talking to family or friends because I don’t have a stake in the decisions you make, only that those decisions come from your gut and serve you well in both the short-term and long-term.
You’ll get to create a life based on what you want and need, not based on anyone else’s narrative or expectations. I’ll help you figure out what’s most important and meaningful to guide your decisions.

How therapy With me helps
Therapy helps you get to the root of your current concerns by diving under your symptoms and exploring your life experiences and thought patterns from a new perspective.
Getting to know yourself in a different way means you can create new meaning from your past experiences, grow from what you learn, and make the kind of changes that positively impact your life.
This deeper understanding allows you to construct the kind of life you deeply want to live without being paralyzed or derailed by fear or worries about other people judging you.
A nonjudgmental and unbiased perspective gives you freedom to discover what you want out of your life, not what anyone else tells you.
I’ll help you figure out what an ideal future looks like by getting in touch with what really matters to you.
It may feel far off now, but it’s possible to wake up and not feel an overwhelming sense of dread, or a worry that things aren’t panning out the way you’d hoped. Life can be fun and fulfilling when overwhelming feelings don’t get in the way of doing what you want to do.
Here are some of my Specialties:
Anxiety & Perfectionism
You’re overwhelmed, struggle to fall asleep, have trouble concentrating, or you’re constantly worried about what might happen in the future.
Nothing ever feels good enough and you’re super hard on yourself when things don’t turn out exactly how you’d hoped. Click here to learn more.
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
Your brain gets stuck on worry thoughts (obsessions) and you often find yourself engaging in behaviors to lessen your anxiety (compulsions).
You constantly seek reassurance, research endlessly, or ruminate, and aren’t sure how to stop. Click here to learn more about OCD treatment.
Trauma & Phobias
Do upsetting experiences still bother you? EMDR therapy is a powerful approach to heal past traumas by rewiring your brain using its natural healing process.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Yes! I offer a free 15-minute consultation to ensure I’m the best fit for your needs. It will also give you an opportunity to ask me any questions you may have.
-
I recommend starting with weekly appointments in order to make consistent progress towards your goals. If we go too long between appointments, you’ll constantly feel like playing catch up and there won’t always be enough time to figure everything out.
Weekly is also recommended for EMDR Therapy because once we light up your memory networks, we don’t want to lose connections by going too long between processing sessions.
-
The amount of time in therapy really depends on what you’re going through and is different for everyone. If you’re concerned about it being an endless process, I want you to know that I don’t keep people longer than they need it.
I’m very collaborative, so we’ll talk regularly about your progress and make mutual decisions about whether we can taper down to every other week and then to occasional check-ins.
-
Therapy is an investment and I totally understand there may be times when it doesn’t seem feasible. I hold a limited number of sliding scale spots. If you have a Health Savings Account or Flex Savings Account through your insurance, I accept that as payment. I can also provide an invoice to submit to your insurance for out-of-network reimbursement.
