You want to live a life that you love, a life that you fully enjoy. You don't want to have your experiences of the past haunt you today, and you don't want to be consumed with worrying about the future. What’s standing in your way? Whether it’s an emotion or habit you can’t shake, an experience from the past, or anything else — let’s figure this out together.
Using an eclectic approach of science-backed therapies, together we will build on the strengths that you already have. Working collaboratively with compassion, open-mindedness, and a healthy dose of humor, my aim is to support you along this journey and help you thrive in the here-and-now while we build a foundation for a peaceful, fulfilling future.
I know from both personal and professional experience that reaching out for help can be difficult, so if you made it here - you rock! You've already made your first step toward feeling better. Let's take that next step together! Feel free to schedule your free 15 minute consultation via online portal, email, or phone. I look forward to getting to know you!
