Reaching out for therapy can feel like a big step, and you don’t have to know exactly where to begin. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, heard, and accepted for who you are. I believe therapy is a collaborative process, and that you are the expert on your own life. My approach is person-centered and trauma-informed, with an emphasis on creating a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard and supported. I strive to meet each person where they are and work alongside you at a pace that feels comfortable and meaningful.
My approach is individualized and collaborative, with the goal of helping clients develop greater insight, strengthen coping skills, process difficult experiences, and work toward personal growth. As a board-certified Art Therapist, I also have the unique ability to incorporate creativity into therapy when it feels helpful or appealing to you.
Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, navigating a difficult transition, healing from past experiences, or simply wanting to understand yourself better, you don’t have to figure it all out alone. I’d be honored to meet you where you are and walk alongside you as you move toward where you want to be.
