Empathy and curiosity are two qualities I will use as I listen to your story. Together we will learn, explore and figure out a way forward. I have a genuine desire to help you find fulfillment, define purpose, enhance well-being and live your best life. Common reasons people may see me are for depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, interpersonal/relationship concerns and career and life transitions. More recently I have begun learning about climate and global issues anxiety as well as issues related to high performers. I practice from an emotion focused approach and work primarily with young adults and adults.
One of my specialities is managing life and career transitions. I have over 20 years’ experience supporting people with navigating career transitions, exploring and deciding on career options, and supporting personal and professional development. If you are looking for someone curious, compassionate, engaged and thoughtful, I may be that person.
What really motivates me is - trying to make the world a better place - supporting others in finding joy - impacting change, individually and systemically - learning and sharing. Connect with me if you are looking for support. I also provide clinical supervision to qualifying psychotherapists.
