My passion is helping people discover and align with their core values so that they may build a life which brings them joy. If you are feeling overwhelmed, exhausted from intense emotions, or unsure about the future, there is hope. I provide a safe place to acknowledge and grieve circumstances outside of your control and an empowering environment to take action to build a life that feels congruent to your true self. Are a parent searching for support for your teen? The stress of adolescence can be so overwhelming and having their own place to process emotions and learn healthy coping skills can make a huge difference.
I believe my clients are the true experts of their lives, and therefore take a collaborative approach to therapy. I have training and experience in a variety of evidenced based practices and enjoy taking a client based approach of utilizing aspects of each in a way that meets the client’s unique needs.
It takes courage to examine your life, struggles, and identity on a deep level. Choosing a therapist that makes you feel seen, accepted and safe is key to getting the most out of therapy. Please call for a free consult to determine if working together would be the right fit for you.
