Life is hard. We get overwhelmed. And stuck. And sometimes it can snowball and we start to lose control. The question is, how do we get out of this cycle? What is it that isn’t working for you? What needs to change? What is keeping you from overcoming these obstacles? The answers aren’t always obvious because there are many factors that fracture our attention, steal our resources, and prevent progress. The ways to get to a content mindset are often clouded by our circumstances, habits, and persp...

Maybe now is the right time to take off the mask, to start being exactly who you have long dreamt of being, and to unwind the faulty narrative that others created. Being ourselves is a full time job, and while there isn't much financial compensation for authenticity, there sure is more peace than most of us have previously known. While I enjoy the ease of Telehealth (my main modality), I also love getting outside with my clients. Hiking sessions are frequent, and like myself, my clients have dis...

I enjoy working with couples to develop positive, healthy relationships and interactions with each other through po...
(TELETHERAPY ONLY) -- Life can be a roller coaster! Everyone goes through periods of highs and lows, take on twists and turns, and at times we come to a screeching halt. That halt comes when we realize that the challenge we're facing cannot be faced alone and we come to understand that we may need a little help getting back on track.

It can be hard to seek professional help. I provide a judgement free space for you to feel free to be who you are while you share. It takes courage to take those first steps in seeking a more fulfilling and happier life and even more to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take those steps I ...
