It takes real courage for you to be here. Perhaps, you feel like you're stuck and you don't know what else to do. You keep trying to fix things on your own, but they aren't getting any better. Experiencing personal struggles, relationship difficulties, life changes, or significant trauma can change who we are and how we see the world. We later feel anxiety, pain, sorrow, fear, self-doubt, guilt, or shame.

You are the expert of your own life. This is the basic belief that guides my therapeutic practice. My role as a therapist is to help each client identify and understand their own behaviors in a better light, and to develop tools that empower them to take control of their own lives. Everyone has the ability to change and grow, and that change is best facilitated with structured support. Together, we will identify your goals for therapy and work towards them. I welcome clients of all backgrounds, beliefs, abilities, genders, sexualities and identities.
