Are you at a crossroads in your life? You know something has to change, but you're not sure how to go about making that happen. Maybe your child is struggling in school, and you are at your wit's end as to how to help. Maybe you are battling an addiction that you want to change but don't know how. Maybe you have found yourself in a place you never expected to be with new life circumstances you have no idea how to handle. You know you need support to help you navigate this place you have found yourself, but no one in your life gets it.
I can help. I absolutely believe that my role as a therapist is to be a supportive partner as you figure out how to build your best life. Having spent my life navigating my own physical disability and mental health struggles, I know something about adapting to changes and overcoming obstacles. I love using that experience to help others overcome their own.

I consider myself to be trauma-informed, strengths-based, and person-centered, but beyond that I have no particular theoretical orientation. I believe people are unique, and therefore, it is counterproductive to try to make their needs fit a particular orientation. Instead, I prefer an eclectic approach that uses a variety of techniques and orientations based on individual need.
