I enjoy working with individuals and couples. My goal is to provide a warm, non-judgmental and inviting space to process and improve: relationships (familial, friendships, work or love), difficulty balancing obligations, challenges with stress or anxiety, self-esteem issues and/or depressive tendencies. I help people identify relational, thought and behavioral patterns that may have once been functional but are no longer helpful. My ideal client is looking for active therapy that has a practical application to help with immediate symptom relief while also looking at and changing lifelong patterns of behavior for longer term change.

Therapy begins as a conversation and progresses into a relationship that serves as a base to explore present and past difficulties. My initial focus on description and detail of the presenting problem aids others in understanding their experience further, and often this increased understanding serves to lessen pain and hurt.

Through our work, we’ll uncover the roots of your challenges and the strengths that empower change. You’ll gain tools to manage temptations, build healthier coping, and restore balance.
