For both children and adults, challenges can create anxiety, frustration, depression, and the feeling there is no way out. I offer a place of safety and support where you can freely process emotions and thoughts, come to a deeper understanding of yourself, and find ways to get yourself unstuck. Together, we look at self-defeating patterns and seek to understand their source. It is my goal to connect with clients regardless of where they may be in their experience. I partner with and hold space for clients of all ages, assisting them in finding their own internal strength and discovering practical solutions to challenges they face.

I have a passion for helping others rebuild and reconnect, and I especially enjoy working with couples, parents, and individuals with relationship issues. I often work with people who are feeling stuck, unhappy, or exhausted by their current situations or relationships, who want change, but don't know what to do next. I like to start therapy by building a strong therapeutic alliance; truly getting to know my client's story and validating their experience. I like to help my client recognize the role their past may be playing in their present moment, but also help them learn this does not dictate their future.
