Having worked in a variety of settings, including 15 years in wilderness therapy, I've found that there is something wonderfully inviting about working together in quiet outside spaces (or utilizing teletherapy in these times of Covid-19). Optimally I help clients utilize their individual strength, values and insight to help find a more peaceful state of mind and lifestyle. As human beings we are meant to build meaningful connections, and sadly there are an overwhelming number of deterrents to building those relationships with self, others, community, etc. We can and will tackle those difficulties together.
I specialize in working with adolescents, tweens, adults, couples and families. I am accustomed to working with clients struggling to find their way through issues such as depression, anxiety, attachment, loss, bereavement, substance abuse, negative body image, self-injury, behavioral struggles, relationship strain, and kids facing issues at/with school.
Making the decision to prioritize yourself, or the well-being of your child, is a brave and vulnerable place to step into. My goal is to earn your trust and to help you feel supported without judgement from the first moment we connect. I'm creative, flexible, and love this work we can embark on together, at a pace you're most comfortable with.
