If you're struggling with an important decision in your life, seeking positive change in a negative behavior, or feeling stuck in a rut, I might be the therapist for you. I offer a supportive space to help you navigate this season of your life. We will focus on realistic goals, learning new skills, and building a strong foundation of self-compassion that can carry you successfully through life's inevitable challenges in the future.
My overall approach to therapy is to create a compassionate and judgment-free space. Through a combination of theoretical approaches such as CBT, IFS, and Motivational Interviewing, body movement and heart connection, we’ll move you closer to the changes in your life you are seeking, always at a pace and with goals that you are comfortable with.
In working with me, you can expect to have an understating ear, complete privacy, my full attention, and a flexible, collaborative conversation to explore anything on your mind. Even as a therapist myself, I know starting this very personal journey is a big step and can be challenging. If you are unsure, please reach out, and let’s talk about it.
