You're looking for an ally to join you on your quest for meaning and purpose, to define and work towards specific goals, on the way to navigating through or around those obstacles. I'll create a safe space for you to uncover what is getting in the way of growth or healing. I specialize in work with adolescents and young adults to sharpen the skills that are necessary to move through the stages of development on the path towards academic, career, athletic, creative and personal achievement.
I work from a strength-based approach to counseling, including narrative therapy, solution-focused therapy, mindfulness and CBT. When timely, I also utilize play therapy and involve family members. I work with teens who are preparing for college; college students who may be struggling with adapting to campus life; and separated couples on co-parenting.
Together we will work to create a secure therapeutic relationship to support you to build the life that you want. Please contact me to schedule a free 15 minute consultation to help you determine if I'm the right therapist for you or your family member.

I often use Internal Family Systems (IFS) in my practice to help my clients to develop insight on their inner narrative and self-messaging. We'll look at the role that your various "parts" play in shaping how you view your true self and your pursuit of meaning in your life.
