I believe that understanding one's perception is essential to understanding one's thoughts, feelings and behaviors. In order to make positive changes, it is very important to understand how one perceives experiences and the reasons why. Therefore, I feel that increased self-awareness and personal growth are integral parts of the counseling process.

I have a warm and open relational style that communicates value and worth to my clients. My goal is to elicit your own strengths to make the change that you want. Too much guidance takes away your own autonomy, and too little keeps you confused, but finding the balance is one of the keys to good therapy. My clients appreciate my client centered and accepting style and most of my referrals come from previous client's recommendations. I have extensive experience with addiction, codependence, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship issues, OCD, perfectionism, and ADHD.

I see therapy as a journey home - home toward our best and truest selves. Our truest selves have always existed underneath the many messages we receive about what we must do in order to earn our value or be worthy of love. This process can be both painful and freeing, and in my personal experience, is usually both harder and more worth it than I imagined. I also believe we are both formed and healed in relationships, which translates into the kinds of therapy and client work I most enjoy.

In life we form certain habits, belief systems, and defenses. They start out of necessity, but if they’re used too long, they create cycles of repeating suffering that we can get stuck in. I am passionate about understanding the layers that shape your environment and your life. My attitude is always empathetic, non-judgmental and curious. The therapeutic relationship is authentic and safe. I strive to create enough space for genuine exploration, so healing can take place and balance can be restored.
