Therapy for me means that we are two people in a room trying to work through issues and struggles. I maintain that viewpoint throughout our working relationship together and believe that therapy can look a myriad of different ways. Together, you and I will determine what therapy should look like, what goals are appropriate, and how we can facilitate healing for you! My ideal clients are clients with a willingness to try. Showing up authentically and genuinely is of the utmost importance when you are trying to work on yourself.

I believe you possess the solutions to their problems, but need tools, support, and confidence to make positive changes.
I work with adults, individually or couples, for anxiety, depression, trauma, grief counseling, and relationship issues. Relationship problems arise when partners attempt to meet their needs, often at each other's expense. With proper tools and insight, clients strengthen the foundation of their relationship on shared values, identified needs, problem-solving/decision-making skills, and effective communication.

I approach my work with clients by meeting you where you are and building a trusting, working relationship that honors your story and experiences. I want to truly listen to understand and come alongside you in your journey to wellness. This viewpoint speaks to a phrase I've developed that also guides my life, "Our perspective on issues coming our way will determine if we live an adventurous or miserable life."
