Many of us never learned how to have our emotional needs met, or how to respond to someone's emotional needs. It can feel as unfamiliar as being expected to speak a foreign language.

Are you struggling with daily tasks? Do you want more out of your relationships? Does it feel as though your heart is heavy? Struggles like this can require a helping hand and therapy can be the step you need. Therapy has the potential to empower and guide growth to overcome the challenges that life brings. It has the ability to bridge tough conversations, acknowledge the impact that the greater society has on us and unpack the emotions that feel unexplainable. Soon that checklist can feel smaller, relationships feel more fulfilling and that weight a bit lighter.

Therapy is about progress, not perfection. You are the expert on what works for you, even if it doesn’t seem clear right now. Together we can figure out where support could be helpful.

My therapeutic philosophy rests on the premise that entering into a therapy relationship is a sacred act, and should be treated accordingly.

I provide a safe and respectful environment where you can explore the patterns keeping you from living a more authentic life.
