At times, life can feel so overwhelming. With each season of life bringing its own set of challenges, we often find ourselves cycling through different emotions and behavioral patterns. Sometimes we may feel confused, lost and “stuck” and we have no idea how to move forward; this is where I come in. My job is to help facilitate healing and help you navigate life’s most complicated seasons. If you are looking for a therapeutic style that is interpersonal and engaging (with a sprinkle of good humor) I am the right therapist for you.
With over 10 years of clinical experience and extensive doctoral level training, I am able to help individuals and couples with a wide-range of presenting concerns. My specialties and interests include: anxiety & mood disorders, premarital/marital relationships, fertility issues, maternal mental health, veterans & military spouses, and expats living abroad.
Everyone deserves to feel empowered and accepted on their journey towards healing. If you feel like we would be a good fit and would like to learn more, please visit my website or call me to book a free 15 minute phone consultation.

Many of my clients report feeling dissatisfied with prior therapy experiences. They often feel like they never progressed and were not given the proper skills to help them move forward in having more optimum days than hard days. I help individuals and couples seamlessly discover the "why" and the "how" in the here and now. You can expect to feel hopeful & motivated even after our initial session.
