Feelings of depression, fear, anxiety, confusion, anger, grief, trauma, and other struggles beset us all at times. I believe creating an environment where everyone can feel safe and heard is vital, and cultivating a therapeutic alliance to be alongside individuals as a nonjudgmental support in the journey to wholeness and independence. I listen for unique needs and preferences and utilize an eclectic and integrated approach to working with the whole person. With empathy and compassion I will also ask challenging questions to explore ideas, new ways of thinking and understanding, and guide intuitive discovery for meaningful change.

NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS—fill out form on DBT website for waitlist. ******Counseling is a highly personal and individual process, and it can be a challenge to find a counselor that you connect with. My style of therapy is very relational, and I will strive to help you grow comfortable with the process while still challenging you to think beyond your current framework or circumstances. I have an eclectic approach: while I focus on being relational, understanding and compassionate, I also approach change practically. Ultimately, you are the expert on your own life; I'm here to try to help you to make your life what you want it to be.

I love what I do. I find it humbling and exciting to join my clients on their therapeutic journey toward health, empowerment and personal transformation. My approach is client-centered, solution focused and strengths based. Often people come to therapy feeling stuck and confused by their circumstances and welcome the opportunity to explore dysfunctional patterns. I enjoy helping people confront unhealthy thinking, develop a plan for change and establish new patterns of behavior. My clients report feeling unburdened, more centered, and better equipped to face whatever crisis or challenge they are facing.
