We learn by doing, not by talking about doing! My practice is centered around Experiential Therapy which means that I believe in the power of personal experiences to facilitate change. I'm a firm believer that nature and adventure is a catalysts for healing and I integrate adventure-based therapy sessions with individuals and groups. Through immersive, hands-on activities and techniques, I guide clients in uncovering underlying issues, fostering self-awareness, developing healthier coping mechanisms, breaking free from their comfort zones, building resilience, and discovering new perspectives on life.

"I cheated, I had an affair." No one ever wants to be told these words, but your partner just said them to you. They were your anchor and they betrayed your trust. In your shock and disbelief, you searched for answers, but that only lead to the worst fights you have ever had. Since then, you have lived as roommates keeping to your own corners of the house. You are tired of the distance and want things to just go back to how they were. But deep down you tell yourself, "It can never be like it was. Not now."

We all want to be fully present to the experiences and relationships in our lives, but sometimes pain, illness, trauma, mental illness or loss keep us from the things that matter most. Therapy can help get to the root of what is keeping you from your life and relationships.

As humans, we will inevitably go through many life changes and events. Sometimes, those experiences can affect us in many different ways. You may experience moments of happiness, sadness, anger, or hopelessness. Some of these feelings, in turn, may impact how you view yourself as well as the world around you. Although you may be able to navigate through some of your emotions on your own, there may be times when you feel as if you need more assistance. It is okay to not be okay. It's also okay to seek help. I truly enjoy working with individuals and helping them cultivate peace within themselves and in their lives in general.
