Whether uncertainty lies in your relationships, work life, or within your own self-identity, therapy provides clients with a safe and supportive environment to freely explore their own solutions. The world can often feel like a place not quite built for you to be yourself. My hope is clients will emerge from session with a sense of empowerment over their circumstances.
I am a marriage and couples counselor and have specialized training in working with LGBT+ and dual career relationships. I have experience working with those in crisis, survivors of sexual trauma and intimate partner violence, and mood disorders. My approach is to help clients reconnect with their own strengths and resources through connection and support.
In my office, your uniqueness is not only to be celebrated, it is often the key component used in your own healing. I work from a systemic perspective because neither therapy nor life happen in a vacuum. This is a holistic approach where I gather information about your entire context to fully understand your circumstances. You do not have to face this alone.
