I recognize that therapy is not always exciting or enjoyable. In fact, it is often uncomfortable, exhausting and scary. You will not always like it. I also think that it is only through facing the impact of difficult ‘life stuff’ that you can build a fulfilling and sustainable way of being. I trust that, as humans, we hold intrinsic knowledge of what we need and unexpected experiences can disconnect us from that knowledge. I view my role as restoring that connection in an honest and collaborative way. I am drawn to finding crucial links uncovering why we do what we do and creating intentional alternatives together with the client.

I specialize in supporting those who struggle with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, or have difficulty managing emotions, or adapting to life transitions. I have also worked extensively to help people cope with the effects of past experiences, trauma, and stress. I use various interventions in my practice but ultimately want to tailor my approach to what will work best for you.
