Embarking on a journey towards mental well-being takes both vulnerability and courage. Therapy is a sacred space, a place of transformation, where vulnerability transforms into strength, and courage takes the helm of your healing journey. As your partner in progress, I would be honored to walk alongside you and support you as you navigate life's challenges and discover the strength within you. My passion lies in supporting individuals living with chronic illnesses and disabilities, neurodiversity, and adoption/foster care.

I work from a social work strengths based perspective and believe in meeting each client where they are and collaborating to address the issue(s) at hand. Whether you’re facing a new challenge in life or feeling “stuck,” I’ll listen actively and we can work together to support you through this time, so that you’re able to gain insight and clarity to allow you to move forward.

I welcome and work with individuals who are looking for support as they navigate challenges in their lives. I create a space free of judgement so that individuals can honestly and openly explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I hope to achieve this through compassion, active listening, and specific therapeutic techniques.

Sharing your life with a stranger is no easy task. It takes courage to start the journey of therapy. I believe in building that relationship by helping people at their pace in a comfortable and respectful way. I hope to provide the space to safely explore emotions and past experiences together to ultimately achieve the goals we have set in mind. My approach to therapy is to be warm and trauma-informed; while remaining flexible and eclectic. My bachelor’s degree in Neuroscience also boosts my understanding of how our experiences affect our physical bodies.

I believe that an authentic, caring, and strong connection between therapist and client is essential to facilitate meaningful change and it is an honor to be invited to participate in another person’s transformational journey.

You are the expert on your experience, I simply serve as a guide to the process. - Therapy is a partnership between you and me, (and my corgi Bennett who may make an appearance now and then - don’t worry, he’s bound by HIPAA too). - I am honored to be in a position where I am able to support my community. The community served include those struggling with a variety of relationship, intimacy, and sexual issues. I also work well with those who are navigating cultural transitions, such as self-identity / exploration, marriage, blended families, immigrants, and refugees. Navigating various domains of life is tough and you are not alone.

Welcome to Coach & Counsel LLC. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is a powerful agent of change and that healing begins only in a space that is truly safe for self-exploration. In my practice, I work collaboratively with my clients; I believe that therapists are the experts of the process, and that clients are the experts of their own experience. I aim to create an empathic, compassionate and nonjudgmental environment, so that you can be unafraid to express any areas of yourself that have been tucked away.

Life transitions offer opportunities for growth and emotional healing. I specialize in helping people cope with anxiety, depression, grief and loss. Managing health conditions including cancer, infertility and chronic illness are among my areas of specialization. I also address a broader range of issues such as couple and family relationships, and parenting.
