I believe that therapy shouldn’t be another stressor, or another “to-do” on someone’s already extensive list. My aim is to make the experience of therapy as comfortable as possible through sliding scale options, extended evening hours, and a flexible approach to modalities.

Life can be challenging, and you don't have to figure it out on your own. Many factors shape who we are and how we feel, some of which we’re not even aware of.

I understand seeking help is truly an act of courage, which I deeply appreciate and respect.

Has a stressful or traumatic event left you feeling depleted, depressed, anxious, or disconnected from your loved ones? By getting lodged in our bodies, stress makes it very difficult to “just get over it,” or "move on." Moving forward and healing, however, is possible. Even by considering psychotherapy, you are making a very important first step towards regaining control of your life. Your choice to value your mental health is the key to getting back your feelings of agency, self-confidence, and sense of control of our own emotions, thoughts, and behaviors.
