Whether you are encountering personal problems, relationship issues, life adjustments, or confronting trauma; therapy has the potential to offer you support, consistency, and insight to help.

I value genuine connection, humor, suspending judgment, and supporting others in all phases of life in my therapeutic approach. Through the lens of these values I utilize a range of therapeutic modalities including; ACT, EMDR, MBCT, EFT, Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, and a humanistic approach.

I also offer Pre-surgical Evaluations, Intellectual Disability Evaluations, and TBI Evaluations. Evaluations may be used to help guide academic (e.g. 504 plans, IEPs, or college accommodations) interventions.

ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS! I appeal best with clients who have identified that some aspect of their life has stopped working for them, or never really worked at all. People who seek out a counselor to validate the fact that change is necessary, and desire professional help to collaborate in identifying their own natural strengths (or at least potential capabilities) towards overcoming difficulties and just need a personal team player. These people are exciting to work with, from individuals to couples. My hope is that my warm and inviting office atmosphere and my own experience and skills can motivate mental healing .
