There is power in the stories we tell and how we tell them. I love being able to hold space for others stories and empower you to decide how to tell it for yourself. My ultimate goals for you are: to know what it feels like to be safe with another person or what I call "feel felt", have a better relationship with yourself, and if we add in a coping strategy or two that you actually like to use, then bonus! There will be no "one way" I do therapy with you, because it's going to be dependent on who you are, where you are at, and how we jive! I have completed multiple trainings including ART, Narrative, DBT, ACT, EFT, Somatic and IFS.

Currently I offer virtual sessions and walk and talk therapy in different areas of the city. Why walk and talk? It can be sometimes be hard to sit directly across from someone and talk about all the hard things. Walking gives you some space, nature/fresh air, bilateral stimulation and movement. Win, win, win!

Feel free to reach out to me via email or a phone call to ask any questions, or book a time/place that makes sense for both of us; I love collaboration! I am mostly available evenings and weekends. I hope to hear from you soon. In lieu of free consults, I offer a special rate for first sessions.
