As you consider the idea of therapy and begin your search for a therapist, I’m guessing you may feel pretty vulnerable. I get it, I’ve been there. Trusting another with your personal story and letting go of some of the protections you have put in place over the years takes time. As your unique story unfolds, we will get there - together.

Certain ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving may be causing you to struggle. Such patterns mark an effort to cope with excessive anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma, or other difficulties.

People come to therapy for all sorts of reasons, but often it's because they're looking for some kind of relief and want to get back to feeling like themselves again. When the challenges you’re facing become too much to bear alone, a safe and accepting therapeutic relationship can provide the support you need to move forward.

Whether you’re seeking to resolve personal distress or wish to embark on growth and self-discovery, I commend you on your commitment to self-improvement. Entering therapy is an act of courage.

Psychotherapy can be a transformational experience of self-discovery. This work can generate new strength rooted in your expanding self-awareness. As a catalyst of change, therapy supports your efforts to identify patterns that are no longer serving you and to reconnect with yourself in a new, compassionate way.

The work of therapy carves new paths. We bolster self-esteem and emotional resilience, which strengthens our capacity to meet challenges.

“A journey of 100 miles begins with one step.” Welcome to the first step! It takes courage to seek therapy. We do so when stresses, negative thought patterns, and emotions block the life we want.

The way we speak about our experiences shapes the way we know ourselves and interact with others. Through dialogue, I help individuals harness the power of expression to forge healthy and vibrant connections both inwards and outwards.

Therapy can offer a safe, creative and compassionate setting. As your therapist, I’m here to help you overcome anxiety, feel empowered and flourish in your relationships, while facilitating the healing and change you desire.

In therapy, we explore who you are and who you aren’t, with curiosity and non-judgment. Knowing yourself and understanding how you relate to yourself and others can relieve suffering, and help you find greater freedom to create the life that you want.

We come to therapy with the hope that our lives can be better, but we often don’t know what to change or how. It’s hard to give up the familiar for the unknown. In therapy we gain the insight that allows us to transform and move forward. I believe we contain the innate ability to heal.
