My main priority is to create a safe, nonjudgmental, and inviting space to explore whatever it is that brought you to therapy. Your life, relationships, and experiences make you unique and it is my privilege to be able to walk alongside you in your journey. Starting therapy can feel intimidating, so I will meet you wherever you are at in your process of self-awareness and growth. My approach emphasizes authenticity, curiosity, humor, collaboration, and self-compassion to help you explore your questions. We all need reminders that our needs are just as important as others, and it is my goal to support you in that practice.
I utilize EFT and IFT modalities and enjoy working with those navigating gender and sexual identity exploration, anxiety, ADHD, LGBTQIA+ issues, relationship concerns, setting boundaries, men's issues, grief & loss, and exploring the impact of cultural influences.
I believe in taking small steps and walking before running. I offer a direct, yet compassionate and curious approach. I encourage my clients to bring forward nothing but their authentic selves. I find joy in writing music, running for exercise, spending quality time with friends and family, cooking, and listening to music.
