People seeking to become who they really are---that is, whole, balanced, resilient, contented---seek me out. I support kind, healthy, authentic relationship with all aspects of oneself because such relationship is key to kind, healthy, authentic relationships with others. It's also key to expressing ourselves most fully, both creatively and pragmatically. Whether working with individuals or couples, these principles apply. I try to make our work together as fun, co-creative, and as low in stress as possible. I intend for clients to leave therapy with personalized skills and skillful means for ongoing lifetime growth and resiliency.

Our relationships with others and ourselves can be wonderful and fulfilling. However, these same relationships can be frustrating and toxic. Relationship issues can be difficult to navigate at any age - whether the dilemma is with your family, friends, or within your own psyche. I offer clients emotional support and counseling through traumatic events, as well as an outlet for those who need guidance dealing with everyday life. We can work together to explore why you’re seeking therapy and develop tools that will help you move forward in a positive way.

Living our best life authentically with our values and principles is possible yet difficult at times. There are challenges in our own potential and sometimes we carry that into relationships we have with ourselves, parents, children, significant others, friends, teachers and/or coworkers. The therapeutic relationship is the foundation to personal growth. The focus in my practice is psychotherapy for children, adolescents, and adults. I work in developing a trusting, safe, supportive environment so you are able to develop strategies to improve your overall quality of life through various therapeutic modalities.

Please email for a quicker response. Therapy is a collaborative endeavor that requires a deep sense of safety if clients are to risk creating the change they long for. I believe it is very important to cultivate a secure relationship. I use evidence-based therapies and use an eclectic blend of person-centered approaches to meet the needs of each individual. My goal is to meet each client where they are at, help them identify their innate assets and apply them to the areas of their lives where they are struggling. I believe that our mental and emotional health is just as important as our physical health.
