Where Therapy Comes In

Maybe you feel stuck in life, like you can’t switch gears, you’re on auto-pilot, repeating the same patterns and habits you always have.

Sure - you’re functioning…

but you’re not fulfilled in the way you thought you would at this point in your life.

Perhaps you struggle with:

The anxiety you experience on a daily level that is overwhelming and you can’t focus on anything else
The daily tasks that keep piling up and you’re not able to feel happy with where you’re at in life
Comparing yourself to everyone else in your life, wondering why you’re not there/like them
Trauma, abuse or addiction and you’re ready to move on
Managing/navigating your family or personal relationships
Setting boundaries in your life with family, friends, partners & coworkers
Communicating effectively in your various relationships to the point where you feel hopeless
Simply feeling happy in general

Therapy is YOUR Solution

Working with a mental health professional creates a safe, designated, confidential space in your week for you to explore the right solutions to these problems.

In a short amount of time, you’ll understand your struggles with more clarity AND you’ll acquire practical tools to use to turn struggles into LIFE BALANCE.

How I Work

My clients enjoy the warm rapport they have with me. I approach each client from a unique perspective as each client is unique. I collaborate with them to understand their needs and goals, and from there I create a treatment plan that is special for them. I believe that each client has a story that can be retold in a new way, and a story that is still being written, so the middle and ending can change as the client transforms.

I help clients tap into their own power and become the best versions of themselves. I teach them about their strengths, especially the ones they think are weaknesses (like being overly sensitive, for example). I help clients build community and find depth, meaning and purpose in their lives.

The approaches I use are a blend of cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic, family systems, humanistic & narrative theories, hypnotherapy, mindfulness techniques, positive psychology, Gottman approaches for relationship issues, as well as various techniques from other theories (as appropriate for the client), like shadow work, inner child work, forgiveness work, brain training and affirmations (to restructure the neuroplasticity of the brain), gratitude and mindfulness practices, to name a few.

Live the Life of your Dreams

I'm not special, but I often hear from others how “lucky” I am because of the life I’ve created and my ability to be happy in my life and in my relationships. But the thing is - LUCK has nothing to do with it. Perspective is key, and within you lies the power to truly take control of your life.

I specialize in helping you find new ways to experience your life and ways to rewrite your story. Like a car, YOU need regular care, attention & maintenance. We look after our kids, our homes, our careers, and most of our personal possessions, but unfortunately, we're not always the best at mental, emotional & spiritual hygiene.

And it's NOTHING TO BE ASHAMED OF! We've ALL been there, myself included! Trust me when I say that it's ALWAYS a work in progress.

If you're committed to your SELF, I can help you learn how to see things differently and make a few tweaks in your day-to-day living to help you go from stress, anxiety and overwhelm to happy, fulfilled and in control. YOU deserve it!
