Are you someone who is seeking to heal from trauma, enhance your emotional well-being, and build healthier relationships with yourself and others? Do you struggle with stress, anxiety, or relational conflicts that are taking hold of your life and are motivated to find meaningful, lasting change? Do you want to learn how to create and maintain healthy boundaries and communicate assertively and to gain a deeper understanding of yourself and developing effective coping strategies? Do you want to achieve personal growth and a greater sense of peace and fulfillment in your life?

My approach is grounded in creating a supportive, non-judgmental and down to earth environment to address mental health challenges and foster emotional well-being without the stuffiness of traditional therapy. I utilized a personalized approach, integrating my specialized training in ACT, DBT, CBT, Trauma, Polyvagal and Mindfulness and Restorative Yoga.

As a therapist who has been to therapy I know that feeling safe and comfortable with your therapist is essential. Lets have a phone chat to see if we are a good fit for your needs and start from there! I am happy to answer all of your questions in a complimentary 20minute call. When you are ready, I am here.
