Are you feeing overwhelmed and stuck but are nervous to ask for help? I'm glad you're here. My approach to therapy is largely Person-Centered – meaning I respect and honor the capacity that each person has to grow and heal, and that I believe already exists inside of everyone. It also means that I recognize you are a person with unique qualities and experiences. I strive to learn about you as a person outside of your trauma and to get to know all of your parts - the happy, the sad, the angry, the scared - at a pace that works for you. Together, we can work collaboratively to achieve your goals and create the life you want.

I work with individuals challenged by the consequences of trauma. Sometimes it can be difficult to even understand how those moments are effecting you now. My focus is to first work on your current symtpoms, the anxiety and depression and other challenges that make it hard to function, and then work towards releasing the hold those past experiences have over your life. Together, we will create a safe and supportive environment to help you work through your toughest challenges to make the changes you see for yourself. I welcome diversity of all kinds.

People are so sick of holding their tongue, wearing costumes, and being inauthentic when navigating social relations. To me, therapy is a place to say the thing and acknowledge the parts of us that many won’t see or hear. The freedom that follows from that experience alone can make all the difference. My hope for our therapeutic relationship is to make space for all of that and more.

I approach therapy with openness, curiosity, compassion, and non-judgement, building a space where it feels safe to explore and bring the whole of your experiences, joys and struggles alike. Throughout our lives, we learn to navigate the world in certain ways, helping us survive and make sense of things; our responses, beliefs, and patterns of relationships are shaped by past experiences. I work with you to better understand these experiences, and compassionately reflect on how your past informs current ways of being, acknowledging interpersonal and systemic influences.

There are so many different reasons why people can benefit from therapy, and you don't need to be in crisis to seek treatment. When you're emotionally well, you can connect better in relationships, feel better about yourself, and participate more fully in life. It has been so fulfilling to help so many people become more self-aware, discover their full potential, and reach their goals. I have been able to see so many clients benefit from evidence based practices. I'm proud to have received specialized training in treatments that work.

Compulsive behaviors impact all aspects of one’s life, including thoughts, feelings, and actions. They can lead to various addictions that include substance use, sex, social media, relationships, gambling, and more. People with compulsive behaviors often struggle to align their actions with personal goals and what is important to them. But I built my practice upon the idea that anyone can recover if given the right environment, and I aim to provide a safe space where clients gain insight and tools for their emotions, experiences, and behaviors.
