Symptoms of anxiety and depression can leave us feeling stuck and alone. They can stop us from enjoying day-to-day activities, living the life we want and may have a negative impact on our relationships. Thoughts and feelings related to anxiety and depression often make us feel like we aren't good enough, worried, afraid and stuck. We may experience physical symptoms of anxiety (pounding heart, difficulty breathing, etc.) that can leave us feeling terrified and wondering, "What is going on with me?". Constantly feeling tense, exhausted, stressed, worried and disconnected does not have to be your normal.

Imagine how it would feel to be free from anxiety and depression. I will teach you the brain science behind anxiety. You can become an expert in greatly reducing and managing symptoms of anxiety and depression. You will learn how to become a master in silencing that inner critic.

It takes a lot of courage to make positive changes in your life and choosing a therapist can be overwhelming. You need someone who you can trust, who will partner with you to provide an accepting, honest and challenging therapeutic environment so you can build your ‘emotional muscles’ to create better relationships and a more satisfying and joyful life.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 15 years of experience. I have worked in a variety of settings including agencies and EAP's in addition to my private practice. Those environments have shown me that while our own histories and circumstances are unique, we all have a common need to feel safe and respected in therapy. It is hard work to look at your life, recognize what you want to change, and then make choices that may feel uncomfortable but are needed to grow and thrive.

I have helped individuals, couples and families who were struggling with anxiety, depression, partner and family issues, trauma, substance abuse and more. I am dedicated to helping my clients tap into their resilience and create new choices so they can get unstuck from negative patterns.

Whether you choose me or another therapist, congratulations on seeking therapy--you made a courageous decision and it will benefit you greatly.
