Do you long for greater love and purpose in your life? Do you feel lonely? Stuck in your struggles?

Therapy Groups help you bring your full authentic self into connection to transcend loneliness and find more fulfilling relationships. Group can help you lean into your life with more courage, compassion and vulnerability. Group can support your unique journey as you find your way home to where you belong, and to the relationships that sustain you.

Therapy may be right for you if you need direction to take the next step. It's scary to make decisions that come with uncertainty. A therapist can give you feedback with your best interest in mind. Sometimes, you may need a sounding board to process your thoughts and feelings. In therapy, you can talk aloud without worrying if the other person is still listening. Unburden yourself by seeking support.

When it comes to finding the right therapist for you, there’s no one-size-fits-all! It is my goal to see the full you and to be curious about what you uniquely need as the dynamic human that you are. I honor your personal values, past experiences and place in the world. Above all, I prioritize a feeling of relational safety, and I don’t subscribe to the idea that therapy needs to be uncomfortable or overwhelming; I care about your limits and boundaries and I trust your intuition. I also bring myself into the room with humor and compassion, and you’ll be able to feel my warmth and presence in a reliable and kind way.
