"Courage starts with showing up and
letting ourselves be seen." 
- Brené Brown

HUMAN FIRST,
THERAPIST SECOND.

Finding a therapist or coach who "gets" you can be a daunting process. That is why it is so important to me that my clients feel seen, heard, and never judged for the content of our sessions. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who is trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and certified in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I have extensive experience working with clients experiencing depression, stress, anxiety, PTSD, burnout, life transitions, relationship challenges, grief, and anger. But I am, first and foremost, a human being. I want my clients to leave our sessions feeling like they have made a real connection with someone who helps them move through their pain and celebrate their victories. That is my commitment to each and every person that I work with.

 I work with individual adults as well as couples. My individual therapy approach draws from an eclectic mix of theories including EMDR, CBT*, Psychodynamic theory, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS). With couples, I draw from Emotionally Focused Couples and Family Therapy (EFT) as well as Gottman Method techniques. I also incorporate tools including concepts from To Be Magnetic, Human Design, the Enneagram, and astrology to give my clients a holistic approach to healing. I am a certified yoga instructor (RYT-200) so we might even throw some yoga philosophy and concepts into our treatment! There is no "one-size-fits-all" therapy method so I customize treatment to meet your specific needs. I am constantly researching and recommending outside resources for my clients, such as books, podcasts, and online workshops that will enhance your treatment.

About

CAREER CLARITY COACHING

​

DO YOU EVER FEEL...

  • "trapped" by your own success? Perhaps you are skilled at getting the promotions, the raise, the praise - but deep down you know that something is missing?

  • like you aren't living in alignment with what truly matters to you? Maybe you are ignoring that gut feeling that you aren't being totally true to yourself in your career or your relationships. Or you have an idea for a business or career change that keeps popping up in your head, but that you have drowned out by continuing to do what you are "supposed" to be doing. 

  • like you are just "going through the motions" - but that deep down you are unfulfilled and burned out?

  • like you are full of so much more POTENTIAL than you are currently living up to?  

  • like you can fast forward to ten years down the line - and you don't like what you see?  

​

If you answered "yes" to ANY (and I mean ANY) of the questions above, it's time to start paying attention to that feeling. Your intuition is telling you that you are out of alignment with your unique gifts and purpose. I know, because I've been there myself. I left an unfulfilling corporate job to follow my passion - and I've never looked back! I also learned SO much along the way. I've put all of the wisdom that I learned from this experience into my "Aligned Achievers" coaching program. 

​

HERE'S HOW I CAN HELP:

​

My "Aligned Achievers" life coaching program will help you: 

  • Gain total clarity about your unique talents, passions, values, and greater life purpose.

  • Let go of limiting beliefs that have held you back from making the changes that you KNOW will bring you a greater sense of excitement, engagement, and purpose in your life.

  • Take action to get into ALIGNMENT with your purpose and unique gifts. For example - you will gain the courage to make that career change, end that relationship, or start that side hustle that you've always dreamed of. ​

  • Re-gain a sense of excitement, enthusiasm, and full ENGAGEMENT in your life. No more "going through the motions" - you are going to be awake AF during this program and beyond!
