As a counselor I strive to foster a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space in which we can work collaboratively towards your goals. I believe that clients are the experts in their own lives and that together we can explore new opportunities for growth. Whether you need someone to listen with curiosity, help address unhealthy patterns in your life, provide support in setting boundaries, or challenge you to look at things from a new perspective, I am here to help.
Drawing primarily from Narrative Therapy, my counseling style is conversational and tailored to meet the specific needs of each client. The stories we learn and repeat to ourselves have incredible power to shape our experiences, together we can work to tell stories that reflect more accurate, healthy views of yourself, others, and the world around you.
In-person and secure online therapy sessions are available. My goal is to create a practice that is accessible and affirming to all. Email is generally preferred for inquiries. If calling, please leave a message with your contact info. I look forward to hearing from you and exploring the possibility of working together.
