Sometimes we find ourselves in a place where we feel stuck or lost - wanting to change things, but not knowing how. Therapy can help. My therapeutic style is grounded in a strengths-based direct approach in the development of a secure, authentic, therapeutic and collaborative relationship between the client and therapist. I aim to create a safe space where you feel accepted and encouraged to explore and access your personal internal resources in order to heal and grow in meaningful ways.
I work with adults (18+) and specialize in trauma, grief and loss, depression, anxiety, interpersonal relationships, and life transitions. I use an integrative approach, drawing heavily from psychodynamic and relational treatment approaches, cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness.
Life can be difficult and messy – you don’t have to navigate the hard parts alone. If you feel like I might be a good fit, please reach out and we can schedule a 15 minute consult to discuss what you would like to work on and next steps.

I approach therapy from a strengths-based, person-centered approach. I build the therapeutic relationship through a compassionately direct manner with gentle humor and curiosity. These issues can be hard to explore, and I believe creating a safe and secure human connection between the therapist and client is the first step towards healing.

I typically use a blend of therapeutic modalities, such as CBT, solution-focused, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and trauma-informed care. No one type of approach works for every person or every experience. I work with clients to identify and practice concrete therapeutic tools while also exploring and processing the deeper roots of mental and emotional wounds.
