My patients include children, adolescents, adults and couples.

I believe we all have a story and our experiences and interactions with others throughout our lives shape that story. Whether the story is predominantly positive or negative, we all have the power within us to edit or rewrite it to realize our dreams and wishes. Through focusing on one’s strengths, challenging negative thought processes, and addressing trauma, I enjoy partnering with clients to empower them to edit their story so they are able to move forward and achieve the life they have always envisioned for themselves.

Whether its the pain of trauma or the onset of a new, overwhelming change in your life, it can become harder and harder for you to be at peace and feel empowered. You may know deep down that something feels wrong, but also feel lost when it comes to addressing these difficulties. Furthermore, these challenges can make you feel isolated from the very relationships you'd hope would sustain you through these difficult times.

'Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.' Along with happiness and opportunity life inevitably brings challenge, change, confusion, loss, stress and disappointment. At these times we can benefit from a supportive environment and through therapy we can learn how to take these experiences and use them as an opportunity for growth. I believe each person's task in life is to become an increasingly better person. To help you do this, I provide input to assist you in identifying and overcoming your barriers to enjoying a fulfilling life.

I believe that everyone is capable of achieving goals that align with their values and what is important to them. Unfortunately we encounter many stressors in our day-to-day lives that pull us away from living a valued life. Things like stress relating to work, relationships, chronic pain/health conditions, past traumas, symptoms of mental health conditions, or any combination of these can act as barrier with living the life we want.
