My therapeutic approach is warm, casual, authentic, encouraging, and collaborative. Life can be tough and having someone on the journey with you can be so helpful. Overall, I feel that building unique, purposeful, and trusting relationships with clients is what I enjoy most about being a therapist, and consider it an honor to be part of the journey. I also enjoy incorporating humor into the therapeutic relationship, laughter is fantastic medicine!
With over 18 years experience, I am skilled in various therapeutic approaches including IFS, ART, Hypnotherapy, Self Psychology, Client-Centered Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, and Psychedelic Assisted Therapy.
Reaching out is the first big step in a healing journey, and I look forward to joining you!

I often use a very relational approach to therapy. I believe we all have an inner healer and I can help access that healer.
