Finding a therapist can be challenging and scary so I applaud you for taking the first step. I believe it is an honor and privilege to be a part of someone's journey and healing and want you to feel safe and comfortable so you can be yourself and explore your past, present and future self. I work from a mixture of therapeutic modalities including Gestalt and psychodynamic. However, everyone is very unique and I always meet clients where they are.

I know... reaching out for therapy is difficult. The thought of a confiding in a complete stranger can seem weird. But I have high hopes that this will be the start of something beautiful. If you are an individual who feels empowered to help calm your anxieties, lift your spirits, and get rid of anything standing in the way of you living your best life, then you're in the right place.

Chances are, you might be concerned about your teens mood and behavior. You are willing to do anything to see them happy. You know this time in their life can be hard, and you understand their confusion. Their frustration, and your frustration makes sense. I am here to help. Over the past decade, I’ve found ways to connect with teens; the ones that have tried everything to feel better, and despite their best efforts, have run out of options. Together, with a strong dose of humor and realness, we can understand and make sense of their behavior.

Marriage and Family Therapy is a second career for me and one that I was drawn to by a deeply held conviction that people are capable of change. My passion for therapy is founded on the belief that we do not have to be bound by our wounds or fears. While these are important parts of our journey, they do not have to define who we are nor who we can become.
