My approach to therapy is rooted in traditional psychodynamic practice while incorporating skills specifically targeted at supporting you in reaching your goals.

I believe open, honest communication is crucial in building a strong therapeutic relationship.

I believe that counseling can help people to become the best version of themselves in terms of their personal, professional, and relationship goals.

I aspire to offer a non-judgemental and understanding space. I help with exploration so my clients can begin the process of self-reflection that will allow them to gain clarity around the steps they need to take to begin to live their life fully. A tenet of my practice is the belief that self-efficacy can create life changes. I firmly believe that the key to changing your life resides within yourself. I would be honored for the opportunity to work with clients who are willing to do the work it takes to begin to live a full and authentic life.

Are you looking for a positive change and feel like your current path is no longer serving you? Are you numbing your emotions by engaging in uhealthy relationships with people, substances, food, shopping, gambling, screen time, etc? Then, I am grateful that our paths have crossed. Together, we can work towards attainment of greater balance and fulfillment through the healing of your whole self. You will find my approach to be facilitative rather than coercive and see that I aim to reinforce positive change in your life, no matter how small or incremental that change may be.

I focus on healing the wounds that have created internal negative "stories" about ourselves and the world to help people reconnect with their original creative, powerful, loving selves. Clients learn stress reduction and self-nurturing techniques to support themselves on the journey through processing trauma and throughout their lives. As clients heal from the past, they then learn new ways to communicate and interact effectively with others and to create the lives they wish to live.

Do you struggle with anxiety? Are you a perfectionist? Would you like healthier relationships? I specialize in empowering individuals to enhance their communication skills, foster deeper connections in their relationships, and navigate the challenges of anxiety and perfectionism. I believe that, with skilled guidance, clients can identify what is important to them and increase their ability to engage in behaviors that help them have healthier relationships, improved communication, increased self-esteem, and move toward a life that they find valuable and meaningful.
