Hi there! I am looking forward to teaming up with you. I have an extreme fascination of the brain, in at least one of my sessions we will talk of how the brain is contributing to your struggles and how we will rewire it to work better for you. It is amazing how a small rewire can make a big change. Not to simplify of course, but to be used as one of the many tools in my tool box to share. I work with couples, teens and adults that struggle mostly with Anxiety and Depression.

My therapeutic approach is supportive, whole-hearted and strengths based. I emphasize a strong therapeutic alliance as a foundation of our work together. I believe that you are the expert of your own life. I strive to meet clients where they're at and help them navigate through their own unique life.

I help people to gain the insight and awareness needed to be the best version of themselves. I strive to create a comfortable and nonjudgmental environment, where people can express themselves and work toward living the life they really want. I work with clients on being less depressed, less anxious, and on overcoming behaviors that may be holding them back. I enjoy working with people who have been in therapy before and also people who have not. I will meet you where you are and help you to clarify and work toward your goals.

It is my firm belief that everyone can benefit from therapy if they are well matched to the person they are working with. Over the course of the past decade, I've honed specialty focus on trauma-informed care, LGBTQ+, human sexuality, women's empowerment, relationships and family sessions, and gaining a strong sense of self and direction in the face of challenging life circumstances. If these areas of treatment resonate with you, I'd love to schedule a time to connect about what you are looking for in a therapist.

“I feel like I'm stuck in the past." "I don't know how to make sense of what's happened to me." “I don’t know who I am.” Sound familiar? If you've ever said these words to yourself (I know I certainly have), I invite you on a journey of discovering who you are beyond what you've had to do to survive; to turn toward your inner wisdom and strengths; to build connection with yourself and with others; and to recognize your self-value and self-worth as differentiated from what you do and what’s happened to you.
