You've made the decision to consider therapy. What comes next - choosing the right therapist - shouldn't be the hard part, but all those buzzwords and abbreviations... it can feel overwhelming. So how do you choose the therapist who is right for you? It's an important question: studies suggest that the strength of the therapeutic relationship is the single most important predictor of successful treatment, more than modality, or the therapist's education or training, etc. I offer all prospective clients a brief, no fee, no obligation consultation via phone or zoom (your choice). If I don't seem like the perfect fit, move on.

Meaningful change happens when we feel supported, confident, & ready. My process helps people clearly define what they really want in their lives & then supports them on that journey. Old limiting beliefs, often born out of trauma, can keep us stuck in a cycle of unhappiness. Together we will build a safe relationship so you can explore what no longer serves you. Doing this in a safe relationship allows your brain to create new neuropathways & your body to release trauma. Through mindfulness, body awareness, & compassionate analysis we will deepen the mind-body connection so you can find the inner space you need to make real change.

In my work with children & families, I see behavior as communication. When children become flooded with emotion or when they may not know how to act or express themselves in a certain situation, they often use their behavior to tell us what they need. As a therapist, I come from a place of curiosity to understand what might be happening for your child & within your family during these heightened emotional states. Through a series of approaches such as play therapy, storytelling, & narration, we will explore the thought patterns & disruptive behaviors that might be impacting your child's functioning at home, school & social settings.

I believe that therapy works well when it is a collaborative process. Finding a therapist you trust is key, as I see the relationship between therapist and client as the foundation for positive change.
