My Ideal Client

Are you awake again at 3 am? Can’t go back to sleep and just WISH you could turn your brain off? You’re thinking about tomorrow’s day full of meetings and also reviewing how yesterday went. Cringing about that off-handed comment you made to your co-worker that you're now second guessing… All this anxiety keeps you on edge, constantly thinking about the future while regretting the past. You just wish you could be more present in your life and enjoy more time with your partner and family.

How I Can Help You

First of all I SEE YOU. I totally get the stressed-out grind of the day-to-day. The good news is there is a path forward to settle your mind, nervous system and start being more grounded inside of the stress. Sessions with me uncover what's overwhelming you, increase your skills to manage stress and heal from old burdens that keep you stuck. Together, we'll create balance in your life. And we'll always go at your pace, never pushing to a place where you don’t feel ready.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe everyone has unique strengths that when realized, can create healing and lasting change from the inside out. Life is hard and our experiences over time can create burdens that don't always serve us. Through guidance, we all have the capacity to let go of these challenges and feel good about ourselves. I'm a therapist who walks my talk, having done (and continue to do) my own therapy to overcome past challenges and feel less anxious in my day to day life. I also believe dogs are magical creatures that were put on Earth to bring greater joy and happiness, but I am also accepting of cats and will never turn down a good cat video. I believe that all people deserve equal rights and that love is love. I am welcoming and accepting of all and make it a point to better understand my privilege and use my unearned power for good. I also engage in ongoing learning to strive toward dismantling the layers of racial injustice.

Techniques I Use

Specialties

  • Internal Family Systems (IFS) External link

    Internal Family Systems or IFS is a unique for of therapy that focuses on your internal "world" and how you interact with the different facets of yourself. It can be a helpful model to better understand patterns you find yourself in and how to change your inner landscape. I have completed Level 1 training through the IFS institute as well as participate in ongoing trainings, supervision, continuing education and practice. IFS is a wonderful therapy option to heal from the inside out.

Issues I Treat

Specialties

  • Anxiety External link

    Anxiety can feel like it sneaks up on you. All of a sudden you're having racing thoughts that you can't quiet, feeling restless, difficulty sleeping and feeling jittery. I've worked with clients struggling with anxiety for over a decade and know many skills to help you manage anxiety and give you day-to-day relief. However, I also go further, helping you to uncover the underlying causes of your anxiety and heal from the issues from your past that may be coming to the surface.
