I know how heavy life can get when you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or like you’ve been carrying too much for too long. Let's untangle those knots — whether that’s stress from work, struggles in relationships, or just that quiet feeling of ‘I’m not myself anymore. "In our sessions, we don’t just talk — we get creative. That might mean art, storytelling, or even turning your favorite hobbies into tools for healing. It’s not about forcing you into a box. It’s about building a process that fits you." "If you’ve been waiting for the ‘right time’ to start, this is your sign. Let’s create a space where you feel seen, heard, supported.

Each client is unique and requires different things. My approach is integrative and I meet my clients where they are and tailor our work to their individual needs. Expect homework and growth. Life stages can typically be best addressed by someone with a deep understanding of the nuances of the different phases we all go through in life.

If you have any questions or concerns please reach out via email or phone number. Lets get comfortable being uncomfortable.

Solution Focused Brief (SFBT)

Eco therapy is an amazing way to immerse in nature and teach grounding techniques and mindfulness. I often use play based talk therapy for children and adolescents. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is been found to be effective. Nonetheless every client is on a different path and need different approaches to their individualized treatment plan.
