You aren’t alone in your pain. It feels isolating and overwhelming trying to navigate a way out of the unthinkable, but when you are stuck feeling alone, lost, and looking for answers – you start looking for help. Sometimes you don't even know where to look or how to get started, but that’s where therapy comes into the picture. Therapy brings connection, hope, and direction. It can offer a new way to do life – discovered meaning, purpose, joy, and authenticity. Your story—whether it’s a story of addiction, brokenness, destroyed relationships, feeling lost, or something else all-together—has led you seek change, and you’ve come to the right place. True change starts in the context of real relationship, and that is exactly what I offer. I know firsthand feelings of unimaginable loss and shame and the power of true relationship. I see connection as the catalyst for change, and I look forward to walking along side your next step. Experiencing change encouraged me to seek a new vocation. Part of my story that led me to become a therapist, is that pain has been a close companion in different seasons of my life. I feel familiar with the shame of repeated failures; I've felt like an outsider, felt lost in my identity, and isolated myself from others. I don’t come into the therapy as someone who is unfamiliar with suffering, but as someone who has walked the path of brokenness and has experienced true change through therapy and connection with others. You start to realize you’re not alone when you find someone or a group of people who accept you, challenge you, and join in the transformation journey. My identity and worldview changed through connection with others – all broken individuals trying to find healing and hope. As a result of that experience, I changed careers, left the corporate world, and became a therapist. I wanted to offer hope, connection, and join others in their journey of learning they have value, worth, and much to offer those around them.
