Currently NOT accepting new clients. Check back in August.
Welcome. The very act of searching out a therapist is often the hardest yet most meaningful one you will take in your path to feeling better. I take the trust you put into me very seriously. I attempt to live my life grounded in authenticity and acceptance and I will use those values as the guiding force in my partnering with you. Life is full of transitions and bumps and bruises. You are not alone. I specialize in meeting you where you are and assisting you in finding out where you need to be.
Depression, anxiety and even relationship issues are often symptoms that something is not being dealt with head-on. When we look at our own lives we may have difficulty "seeing the forest for the trees". That's where a therapist can enter and help you navigate the blurry areas.
I have experience in a variety of clinical, healthcare and educational settings. Prior to beginning my career as a therapist, I was an educator. I bring both my professional and personal experiences to the table when working with clients. Call me today.
