Are you navigating through one of life’s many transitions? Perhaps experiencing some symptoms of anxiety or depression, racing thoughts, a lack of motivation, self-sabotage or isolation? Are you stressed or overwhelmed and wondering if you should talk to someone about it? 

I can guarantee you that there is no “right” time, reason or explanation to start seeing a therapist, but you’re here now and I am so glad you are. 

I use an eclectic approach to tailor therapy to each individual’s identified needs by combining self-reflection, mindfulness, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), psychodynamic psychotherapy and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) approaches. Such needs include but are not limited to depression, anxiety, various life transitions, chronic stress, family discord, trauma, self-esteem, and early childhood experiences that may impact one’s current functioning. We naturally have defenses that protect us during times of difficulty, trauma, panic and extreme stress. However, these defenses sometimes become prohibitive and stop us from personal growth. 

My goal is to assist you in learning healthy coping skills to manage these symptoms but to also explore the root cause of them in an effort to reduce them. We’ll take a look at how unresolved issues of our past can leak into our present functioning and work together to identify patterns of behavior and make effective change.
