SERVICESWhat You Might Be Facing
STRESS
Anxiety
When we feel overwhelmed and at a loss of how to free ourselves from our stress, uncertainty, and worry, therapy can help provide assurance and perspective to embolden us and equip us to better manage and let go of the grip of our anxiety.
EMOTION
Depression
Feeling disconnected, lonely, helpless, hopeless, stuck, and/or a lack of get up and go? We can develop a more objective evaluation of ourselves from therapy with someone genuinely interested in empathically understanding our losses, pain, and feelings of unworthiness.
RELATIONSHIPS
Self Awareness
When unaware of the ways we hide behind our personalities and operate on autopilot, we can get into repetitious patterns in our lives and relationships that keep us from thriving. Therapy can help awaken us to grow past our patterns into the fuller life we desire.
STRESS
Work Pressures
Many who work in high-stress environments that tax their mental and emotional resources have never been equipped to manage it all. Therapy can help us find the support we need and alternative perspectives on how we understand ourselves and our stress.
TRAUMA
Burnout
Many caregiving professionals who are repeatedly exposed to clients' traumatic circumstances and stories reasonably develop a lessening sense of satisfaction in their work. Therapy can counter these impacts on us so we can maintain our effectiveness and prevent burnout.
STRESS
Unsustainable Coping
While escaping or avoiding through substances or distractions can seem the only option, they are fleeting and lack the grounding necessary to grow. Discover sustainable alternatives to equip yourself for a health and wellness.

- BIO
- EXPERIENCE AND CREDENTIALS
I am a former Big Law attorney who is now a psychotherapist focusing on working with lawyers and professionals who are navigating challenging lives and careers. I get the struggle. I’ve lived that life, and I believe in creating a non-anxious, non-judgmental environment of care and trust in which clients can open to the depths of their unconscious motivations and processes. My hope is that all will be free to grow to become the fullest expression of their true selves.
If you’re interested in growing beyond the limiting thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that are no longer serving you, schedule a consultation with me to take a step toward a new journey toward a fuller life.
