Choosing a therapist can feel like a daunting task; I do not believe that therapy is one size fits all and hope that the following information will help you decide whether we might be a good fit! My clients describe me as non-judgmental, genuine, warm, funny, enthusiastic and honest. I believe that we only have one shot at this thing called life and that we all deserve to live that life to the fullest (and I would love to hear about what that might mean to you)! In the words of Mary Oliver, "What will you do with your one wild and precious life?"

Humans are experts in their own lives and have unique abilities to embrace change, live positively, and achieve their goals. I also believe humans have untapped strengths and resources to live a fulfilled life. I am to use my skills to empower the client to develop acceptance and resilience while taking meaningful steps toward positive change. We will collaboratively identify strengths and create achievable goals. I also aim to provide clients with practical tools for managing their emotions, while improving their overall quality of life. Ultimately, I meet the client where they are at and we work together at the client's pace.

I practice from a Virtual Setting only; from my office to your home.......
