Accepting NEW clients! As a therapist I aim to empower my clients on their journey to healing and happiness. My goal is to help create lasting change in both individuals and their relationships. I work to provide a safe, comfortable, confidential and non-judgmental space for clients to explore and process their current and past struggles. My therapeutic process is collaborative and I look to acknowledge and validate my clients while teaching the skills that are proven to be successful when it comes to making changes. I do talk therapy that is inclusive and affirming of all orientations, lifestyles, beliefs and relationship styles.

Therapy is a journey of self-discovery, becoming who you are meant to be, and I am here to share this courageous "deep dive". Are you ready to make conscious those things you already feel so raw and vulnerably in your body, to seat your feelings so close as to live to the point of tears? Like picking up a new and unfamiliar musical instrument, the first necessary step is to begin, does not matter where, or how, poorly or well. Beginning is difficult, we are reluctant to take that first close-in, brave step to reclaiming the happiness of actually having started. Living to the fullest is my goal for all of us.
