I work with a wide range of clients, many of whom share similar challenges—work and organizational stress, health concerns, grief and loss; or are experiencing other difficulties, such as PTSD and other traumas (including compassion fatigue), depression, or anxiety. My approach is person-centered, focusing on you, the client, and the moment-to-moment engagement, discovering insights together. I can help you discover insights into barriers, and the constructive solutions to overcoming those barriers. Each person has the right to live a life free of negative thoughts and experiences—a life of healthy well-being.

I provide an opportunity for individuals, couples, and/or families to tell and shape their stories using verbal and visual means. Creativity is not only an emotional outlet, it also provides a window into other parts of our selves and has the power to create profound change.

All humans have the capacity for hope, healing, and happiness. I have devoted my life to being a therapist that will provide a safe space for clients to venture through this process with unconditional authenticity and support. As a therapist I commit to providing you with the individual, personalized healing space that you deserve.

My practice is currently full. I help adults increase a sense of stability and resource in times of shift and change. I offer a safe place for you to bring your experience of anxiety, depression, anger, or your struggles with recovery. I work from the perspective that in order to connect with inherent strength and resilience, you don't have to edit or bypass what you're feeling. It's not one or the other. In addition to my work with individuals, I help couples who are struggling find new ways to connect and live with greater ease and joy.

Are you feeling stuck or in need of a plan? Having trouble achieving what you want? Disorganized?

My work with my clients is based on respect and trust, while promoting growth. As a therapist it is my goal to aid my clients by teaching positive communication skills, conflict resolution, and tools to learn how to identify and change problematic interaction, patterns or behaviors. My therapeutic style is encouraging and engaging. I work with couples, families, individuals, children, and teens. I strive to support my clients in meeting their goals and find solutions to achieve successful happy results. I will maintain a honest, open, and safe therapeutic space for my clients, while building upon their strengths!

"I’m tired of feeling this way. I want help. I want something to change." I hear you, I see you, and I want to sit with you in these moments. You want to feel comfortable in your life, in your relationships, and with yourself. You want to feel sure of yourself and content, with coping skills and new ways of engaging in life and with others. Let’s work together to learn new ways of behaving, and grow in your understanding of yourself and family. My strength as a therapist is to get to know you, relate to you and offer another perspective.

Something within you has led you here. Something yearning for understanding, change, or acceptance. Maybe you feel anxious, overwhelmed, stuck in holding patterns, tending old wounds or wondering "What's next?" Whatever is present for you, it is my honor to meet you where you are, as you are, with compassion and curiosity. My goal as a counselor is to create a nonjudgmental, supportive space for you to connect with your truth. All of us are already whole, and therapy is a way to return to that knowing. I'm inspired by my clients' wisdom and creativity as they explore the highs and lows of their experience and find a way forward.
