You are looking for someone that can understand YOU, someone who you can feel comfortable with, but who will also let you now when you are not being truthful to yourself. I can be that person for you. The therapeutic journey is a hard one, full of drama, laughter and everything in between. I want to walk with you on this journey, meeting you wherever you are at. Some days with me will feel heavy, some will feel light, but all will feel like a step forward. I have walked many of the same steps you will, but your journey is your own. Most of my work focuses on growth, but there are many ways to grow.
I am a holistic, humanistic LMFT with a degree in Transpersonal psychology, which means that I include body, mind, and spirit in our work, whatever this mean to you. I also pull from my training and experience using expressive arts, art therapy and somatic therapy. I am comfortable talking about sex, drugs, spirituality and the challenges of modern living.
Looking inward can be difficult. The journey forward has many challenges. Luckily, you do not have to do it alone. As an experienced and compassionate therapist I am here to help support and guide you. What hidden depths can we explore together? Reach out now for a 15 minute phone consultation now, I respond quickly!
