Simply put, being human is hard. When we experience loneliness, depression, fear, or disconnection, our relationships to others and to our true selves can become closed off, leaving us feeling isolated and in pain. In those moments of hardship there is immense power and courage in reaching out. Therapy can be a safe haven to process past experiences that have caused harm, address relationships that are in crisis, and find a way to reconcile loss. We can also use counseling to explore your values and how your life is lining up with those values, or missing the mark.
I believe therapy is a collaborative, dynamic relationship wherein you are the expert of your experience and I am a support to guide deeper understanding into what is and isn't working in your journey. I utilize evidence based, mindfulness, and holistic approaches to working with clients and believe in tailoring services based on each client’s unique needs.
I strive to foster a genuine connection wherein you can share your stories, explore their meanings and cultivate your strengths. In our work together, I will meet you with unconditional, acceptance, collaboration and compassion, and a healthy dose of humor and authenticity. Ultimately, I strive to support each person in achieving a more joyful life.
