I strive to foster a safe space where clients can tell their story, gain insight into how that has impacted them, acknowledge the various unique contexts which impact their lives, connect with their strengths, and learn new ways towards wholeness and personal growth. I also have a passion for working with couples and helping them break free from difficult communication patterns using Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), which focuses on the attachment or strength of the bond a couple has and emotions that are getting in the way of safety, connection, love, etc.

Seeking help is the first courageous step towards growth, change, fulfillment and healing. These days, daily life can be really difficult to manage and it can be a struggle to not lose ourselves to the anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and chaos we experience. Feeling alone, disconnected and discouraged doesn’t have to remain the status quo. There is hope in recognizing your greatness and your potential. A whole person approach to supporting your mind, body and soul is central to my therapy as is the inclusion of evidenced based practices like CBT, TF-CBT and Motivational Interviewing.

Now is the time to focus on growth, healing, purpose and direction in your life. Therapy is a powerful tool for adolescents and young adults when you encounter challenges like anxiety, depression, trauma, anger, family issues, substance use, poor self-esteem, relationship issues, + loss. Therapy is an opportunity to find comfort, to build strength and to overcome. For adolescent clients: Life is complicated and the bottom line is that your life can be difficult to navigate. I’m well aware that most young people aren’t thrilled about the idea of going to therapy, know that I am ready to hear you, to respect you and to value you.
