Welcome, it takes courage to seek help when life’s challenges seem overwhelming. This process offers an opportunity for growth, healing, and self-discovery, as I assist you with connecting to your own wisdom and compassion. I can help you explore barriers to greater contentment, fulfillment, and joy, while increasing coping skills to manage life’s inevitable stressors. Some of the issues I work with include mood and anxiety concerns, trauma, grief/loss, stress, relationship issues, life transitions, LGBTQ+ issues, and healing from dysfunctional upbringings.
I use a collaborative approach that involves gentleness and humor, drawing from different modalities including CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and Attachment Theory among others. I have worked with people across the lifespan, from adolescence to older adulthood, as well as families, and have an understanding of substance use disorders and their impact.
The therapist you choose to walk alongside you is a powerful decision. If you feel that I might be a fit for you, please call or email me to schedule a free 15-minute consultation so that we can discuss me partnering with you on this important journey. I look forward to speaking with you!
