I have over ten years of experience supporting older adults, adults, transitional youth, and teens.
Starting therapy, or starting with a new therapist, is a vulnerable choice and a radical act. I'm excited that you are making the conscious choice to focus on you.
I have a relational and integrative approach that relies on our sessions being a place to express yourself fully and try on new ways of being.
Therapy shows us how to sit with discomfort, so we can make self-led decisions about the life we want to live. Identifying coping skills to regulate your nervous system in these moments allow you to live proactively, rather than reactively. Life's wisdom is already within you.

I am nationally board certified in palliative care and work with people experiencing many different types of health concerns (e.g. cancer, stroke, ALS, Parkinsons, dementia, MS, MD, heart or lung disease, injury) as well as with loved ones.
As either a patient or caregiver, coping with illness, injury, disability, or medical trauma can be quite the challenge. It forever affects how we view ourselves, our bodies, our relationships, and how our lives were “supposed” to go. These experiences are also impacted by everything else we have been through in our lives. Each of us will inevitably experience being a care-giver or a care-recipient, and specialized therapeutic support can help you navigate the specific difficulties that illness or any health issues present. At any age, stage, or severity of illness or injury, cultivating resilience is possible. You aren't alone.
