Life can be overwhelming. Creating a place that provides perspective and insight can be essential to grow into the full self. Thank you for taking time to consider this journey. Making the decision to pursue therapy for you or a loved one can be a challenge within itself. I hope I can be a part of it.
My approach is relational, and person centered. I have training in multiple modalities but try to tailor my approach to each individual that best suits where they are. I am also a Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist and work with individuals struggling with addiction. I work with adults, adolescents, children and families.
