I'm really drawn to people who truly know themselves and aren't afraid to seek a little extra support when they need it. It's not just about going through the motions; it's about diving into therapy with enthusiasm and working together to make real progress. Essentially, it's about being present, embracing growth, and facing the journey with an open heart.

We all need support at different times in our lives and I understand that reaching out for this help can be difficult.

Understanding your story, respectfully and safely, then creating goals for success and how to get there, will be the direction of our work together. With my primary focus on anxiety, depression, family issues and grief, the ultimate outcome of our work should feel progressive and empowering.

Opening up is difficult. Often we're told to deal with it, or that things will get better. Maybe you’re going through a transition, feeling overwhelmed, tired, or stuck. Maybe you’ve been feeling an emotion you’ve been told you’re not supposed to feel. Navigating these conflicting thoughts and feelings can be a lot to manage, but you do not have to manage them alone. Maybe you feel like your problems are too big or too small. Maybe you feel like something is just a passing thought and is not worth bringing up. When working with me, nothing is off the table – if it’s important to you, then it is important to me.
