Our lives are made up of relationships. When those relationships are peaceful and balanced, we thrive. When they're strained and dysfunctional, we struggle. That's why I'm passionate about helping individuals, couples, and families build stronger relationships. My goal is to ensure that they build the skills they need to handle life's challenges and obstacles with grace so that they can show up for one another in meaningful ways.
My clients tell me that our sessions feel like talking to a lifelong friend. I approach most issues with curiosity and find that the more I seek to understand my clients, the more they can identify connections and patterns for themselves. Because I don't shy away from the truth, I tend to be direct with my clients, while keeping their comfort levels in mind.
There is a quote that says, "Therapy is asking someone to join you in the darkness with a light to help you find your way out.” If you’re feeling alone in the darkness, struggling for true connection and belonging in your relationships, let me join you - I know the way out.

Therapy is different for every person I work with. Some like a more conversational style, some more structured & formal. I will typically assign things to do outside of therapy because the goal is for you to develop and improve skills that allow you to manage without me, not to become dependent on me. Treatment plans are based on the individual goals for therapy and can change whenever needed.

I typically take pieces from several different therapy types depending on where my client is in their healing journey. Presently Attachment Theory is my base and I add interventions from others as the journey unfolds and I learn more about the goals and passions of my clients. Therapy is about you and if who you are isn't part of the process it might not work as well.
