I am passionate about providing ethical, empirically supported, and nonjudgmental mental health care to a wide range of individuals and couples. I love working with people who are unsure of whether therapy is right for them or not - I like a tough crowd! It is part of my job to figure out how best to serve you. I truly believe that we carry our early attachment experiences with us throughout life, and they can both help and hinder us. Together we can unravel the mess and find out what's going on.

My general style uses active listening, humour, metaphor, and unconditional positive regard. I think the "magic" of therapy is in having someone truly know, understand, and accept you. I also believe that a good therapist makes themselves obsolete over time, so I aim to empower you and equip you with tools to help you help yourself.

I do my best to see new clients quickly. Therapy can be difficult, but it can also be enjoyable and fun. Laughter is welcome, as are tears. Some of the best sessions happen when a client thinks they have nothing specific to talk about. I would love to go on this adventure with you, so feel free to reach out!
