I enjoy working with adults, individual and couples and adolescents. I start with where you are at and collaborate on meeting your needs/goals. I treat the whole person, harness your own unique strengths and offer my unconditional positive support. I trust the process and believe in each person's capacity to make their life what they want it to be. I see therapy as utilizing a nurturing clinical relationship to create a safe place where self exploration and healing is possible. In this process you can gain clarity, get perspective on a situation and reach a sense of satisfaction and aliveness in your relationships and life.
I work from a relational and heart-centered approach. I bring a playful, warm-hearted, grounded, open and accepting presence. I create a safe and nurturing environment. I am dynamic, interactive and engaging, creating energy in our sessions that you can take with you when you walk out the door!
This life is a gift, and yet there's always something to learn. I am humbled by what it is to be human. The wounds we carry, living with mental illness and difficult relationships can be really painful. I invite you to give yourself a space to be heard, felt and understood. I encourage you to make yourself important and have the support you deserve.
