I utilize an interactive, collaborative, supportive, positive/strength-based methodology.

I do not claim to have all the answers, but I utilize the therapeutic space to help you develop your own answers. I strive to help you gain wholeness, healing and recovery...in a comfortable therapeutic environment...instilling hope and a belief in the ability to adapt and overcome. My clients tell me I am easy to talk to, that I have a calmness about me which helps them "open up". I wholeheartedly believe in the power of psychotherapy as a meaningful tool for recovery from life's sufferings.

I approach therapy with a humanistic lens, that means that I believe that YOU are truly the expert on you. It is my job to provide a supportive environment for us to examine what is and what isn’t working.

Together, we will begin a journey to discover the life that you would like to live and gain the tools you need so you can begin living it.

I get so excited to watch clients learn more about themselves, build self confidence and grow as individuals. The transformations I have witnessed in the people I have worked with over the years is amazing and awe inspiring. Emotional pain can be incredibly difficult to deal with, especially on one’s own. Depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, low self-esteem and shame are just some of the common issues I have helped guide clients through on their journey to a more positive and satisfying life. Ultimately, we all deserve to feel better about ourselves and learn to care for ourselves in a more kind and accepting way.

It can be really hard to put yourself out there and start seeing a therapist, so I’m glad you’ve taken the first step towards doing that. Because I know therapy can sometimes be uncomfortable for people I think it’s important for us to take some time to get to know each other so you can feel more at ease when we’re meeting. I really want to help you work through whatever is bringing you to therapy, in a way that makes sense to you.
