My clients usually come to me feeling stuck in a relationship, transition, or stage in their life. Maybe they're not sure how to take the next step, and feel like time is slipping by. I think this is normal and it's worth talking about. I try to act as a neutral party, listening to everything you tell me, and piecing it together. I make educated guesses, but I know that you are the expert of your story. When working with couples, I give each person the space to be their genuine self. I don't take sides, but instead, I side with the relationship between you. How can we course correct and bring back the feelings that once existed?
I was trained to think systemically, which means considering how your family, friends, school, and workplace all impact your personality and decisions. We're relational creatures, and often forget how our experiences with others change the way we respond to stress and circumstances. I'm always learning, so I'll make changes based on your feedback.
I enjoy getting to know my clients and often use humor in my work because laughter helps us heal. I strive to be nonjudgmental and relatable, even if we’re complete opposites. I want to hear about your hobbies and interests and create a space that feels like grabbing coffee with a trusted confidant. Give me a call when you’re ready.

I like to think of therapy as having a toolbox. One session we might pull some tools from CBT or Narrative Therapy, and the next we might use a bit of EFT, whatever best supports your needs. Everyone responds differently, so we'll experiment a bit to find what truly works for you.
