The Answer Is Within

Stress & Burnout

Stress and burnout are usually the result of overextending ourselves at work or at home and lack of intentional space for ourselves.  Some common symptoms are:

  • Difficulty saying NO Difficulty organizing/prioritizing
  • Doing more than we know we should to the point of emotional, mental and/or physical exhaustion
  • Participation only in obligatory activities with little to no time for self.
  • Increased eating, substance or alcohol abuse

Couples

When our attachment with one of the most important people in our lives is disrupted, it can wreak havoc in many areas of our lives. Our areas of focus include:

  • Communication issues
  • Emotional expression difficulties
  • Infidelity
  • Conflict resolution

Perinatal

Pregnancy and childbirth can be one of the most exciting and/or scariest experiences of our lives. Some of us may experience debilitating depression and/or anxiety that may leave us feeling ashamed, guilty and alone. Others may have experienced trauma during childbirth. And still, there are vast numbers who may experience the baby blues, feelings of resentment and overwhelm in response to increasing responsibility and a changing family dynamic. It is important to know that these feelings are all NORMAL. We provide a safe place to acknowledge and process through these feelings while offering practical coping strategies, encouragement and support.

Bipolar Disorder

Bipolar Disorder is a categorized mood disorder that varies from mild to severe manic, hypomanic and/or depressive symptoms that last for weeks to months and are often debilitating. We conduct assessments and evaluations to determine the correct diagnosis, provide referrals for medication management and provide ongoing treatment to manage your symptoms so they don’t get in the way of achieving your goals.

Anxiety

Anxiety can be helpful by keeping us alert and attentive but when it becomes unmanageable, it can keep us from enjoying life. Some common symptoms are:

  • Difficulty Relaxing/Edginess
  • Sleeplessness
  • Racing thoughts
  • Difficulty focusing or concentrating
  • Muscle Tension/Headaches
  • Fatigue/Exhaustion

Consulting

Private practice is not an endeavor to be undertaken in isolation. Whether you’re looking for support in building or growing your practice or just need new perspective for challenging cases, I can help. I provide consultation for therapists practicing from a myriad of theoretical orientations including: behavioral, humanistic and existential. As an eclectic therapist, I employ a mix of interventions and utilize many lenses to better understand and help my clients and am confident that I can help you.

Grief & Loss

Loss is one of the most profound and earth shattering experiences a person can face. Don’t face it alone. Whether you are struggling with the loss of a relationship, loved one, job or family role, the feeling of powerlessness becomes apparent and can be, for most of us, overwhelming and crippling. You may be feeling that it is easier to forego the feelings connected to the grief but it’s so important to experience them so that you can begin to create new meaning within your new stage of life. Remember, there is no time limit on grieving. We are here to hold space for your journey through darkness to the light.

Depression

Depression is twice as more likely to impact women as men. Some common symptoms are:​ 

  • Fatigue
  • Sadness
  • Hopelessness
  • Withdrawal/ Isolation
  • Lack of Motivation
  • Loss of interest in pleasurable activities
  • Changes in appetite (over or under eating)
