Finding the right therapist can be a challenging task. I've discovered that many people are looking to work on aspects of themselves but struggle with knowing where to start and how to sustain meaningful change. Sometimes it is a matter of feeling heard and other times we seek direct guidance and feedback. We often need to develop the language to better understand what is happening and to place things in a useful context. No matter what you are looking for, I believe that creating an environment of trust, compassion, empathy and understanding is critical to the process.
I specialize in issues that are important to diverse populations. I specialize in substance use, Depression and Anxiety, Attachment, Trauma (including PTSD), Grief and Loss, relationship instability and family dynamics, career guidance and human sexuality (including LGBTQ+ affirming).
Getting started is the hard part but it only get's better. I am looking forward to helping you take those initial steps and establish long term patterns of stability, growth and ongoing wellness.
