Life can be tough, especially if you are feeling stuck, alone, stressed, disconnected, burned out, or like something is missing. It takes a great deal of strength and commitment to work on the difficulties that you are facing, and you’ve taken an important step in making a change by looking for support. I offer individual adult and youth psychotherapy. If you or your teen are experiencing difficulty in relationships, anxiety, self-criticism, perfectionism, low self-esteem, difficulties with parenting or family dynamics, or if you want to develop emotional insight and regulation skills, I am here to provide guidance and support.
I may also be a good fit if you want to: strengthen your relational or family communication, shape your life to be more aligned with your values and goals, heal past relational pains, develop boundary setting and assertiveness skills, manage stress and burnout, explore how to increase your self-compassion, or develop emotionally-informed parenting skills.
I am committed to creating a collaborative therapy environment that feels safe for you to explore the challenges you are facing, guided by evidence-based practice. I hope to help you explore how to create meaningful change in your life, and will work with you to find an approach suited to your needs. Please feel free to reach out to book a consultation.

My main influences are Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Motivational Interviewing (MI). These therapies offer opportunities to dynamically practice skills and deeply explore difficulties with activities such as metaphor and imagery work, action planning, or role-play. These therapies emphasize you as the expert and myself as your therapist as a guide.
