I provide individual, couples, and family therapy, and use a variety of approaches, including cognitive-behavioral therapy, person-centered therapy, and solution-focused brief therapy.
I believe that individuals grow and change in therapy mostly because they learn how to think differently about their problems and practice what they are learning. I also believe that growth and change are more likely to occur in the context of a safe, trusting, and respectful therapeutic relationship.

My approach to therapy is rooted in Positive Psychology, Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Psychology and Emotionally Focused Therapy.
You may be at a point where you are feeling depressed because you feel alone and misunderstood. Changes in your life are overwhelming. Life and relationships are difficult to manage. You may be thinking that you “should” be stronger and not let things bother you so why do they? Your marriage has a lot of challenges and you and your spouse do not see eye to eye. You are an LGBTQ identified person and are feeling stuck. You are encountering roadblocks in your personal life and relationships. You want so much in life, but nothing seems to come together for you.

Hey there! Glad to see you here! I describe myself as a client-centered, trauma informed therapy nerd. I take a liberation focused and systems-based approach to healing- we exist in systems and are impacted by them, why not consider them as a part of our overall wellbeing? You can expect me to bring a flexible structure (seems opposite, but it's real!), humor, boundaries, empathy, curiosity, and honesty to therapy sessions. Whether its a space to work through and focus on "doing", or a place for you to be witnessed and "be"- we get to be in whatever process you're in and honor YOU!
