Reaching out for support can be daunting and intimidating and I want to help you feel as comfortable as possible throughout the process. I want you to feel comfortable asking questions and not worrying if you are doing something right or wrong or if it's too soon or too late to ask any questions. I strive to be empathetic and understanding of people and the ways we show up every day. No judgments, no dumb questions...just non-judgmental support because that’s what we all deserve.

As a clinician, I embrace a strength-based approach and I borrow from many different cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy theories. I believe that building a positive therapeutic relationship is of great importance in the therapeutic process and that our time together should feel supportive and safe. I utilize dialogue, psychoeducation, relaxation/ mindfulness, reframing negative thoughts and positive decision making.

I provide therapy for individuals and couples who are looking for change through a warm, engaged, and challenging process. You are the best expert about your life and your experiences; sometimes you just need external perspective to help you truly know what you know and figure out what you want to do with that knowledge. Financial issues, grief, loss, transitions, and relationships - these are the issues people bring to therapy. I work with the information that you bring into the room to help co-create solutions that truly work for you.

Good psychotherapy requires a "match" between client(s) and therapist and avoids "stretching the client to fit the couch." Finding the right psychotherapist involves both clinical skill and personality match. A good therapist is genuine, warm, and offers a human relationship with active listening, guidance, and good advice. As a Marriage & Family Therapist, what I offer as a clinician is an active style of psychotherapy with a high regard for where you are in your journey, what your goals are, and what things can be pointed out and changed along the path to growth and improved relationships.

As an athlete, you first get into sports for the love of the game. You thrive off the adrenaline, the comradery, the joy of being part of something that is bigger than yourself. At some point along the way you might forget your "why" and what was once something you looked forward to is now something you dread. You may be consumed by being “perfect” and the thought of being anything less may have instilled in you a constant fear. This fear may make you feel overwhelmed and worried about your performance. The more you try to avoid making mistakes, the more mistakes you actually make.

Do you just need someone who will listen and understand? Or are you having a hard time connecting with a loved one? Do you wonder what happened to your relationship? Do you struggle with communication or looking to reconnect? I love working with Individuals and relationships. Sometimes life's transitions draw us further away from each other, like after having kids, or when they move away. It's easy to become more like roommates. I help you open up to each other again and feel safe and seen. Intimacy can become non-existent or seem like a chore. I can help you talk about those sensitive topics and connect intimately and sexually.

A foundational quote for my work as well as my life has been “Be kind for everyone is facing a hard battle.” One’s battle could be feeling alone even when surrounded by people, trying to manage countless life stressors, or struggling to overcome addiction amongst others. Meeting you where you are at and seeing past your symptoms to who you are as a person is central to who I am as a counselor. Within your battle, I strive to compassionately assist you in recognizing the strengths that you have within yourself to cope.
