Are you wondering if you can find an experienced therapist who “gets you,” someone you can trust and who will be in your corner? You’ll find that I’m the kind of therapist who really listens, is reliable and supportive. My commitment is to provide you with a safe, nonjudgmental relationship that allows you to solve problems at your own pace. Our work together will help you deepen self awareness, increase compassion for yourself and others, and resolve old patterns that no longer serve you.
My approach is trauma informed and client-centered, providing you with practical tools to uncover your best self. I enjoy working with individuals who are dealing with traumatic or stressful situations and are wishing to move forward towards increased peace of mind, self understanding and quality relationships.
Along with 20 years of experience in the mental health field, I am trained in Gestalt therapy and certified in Brainspotting. Feel free to reach out to me to learn more about these approaches or to inquire about openings. Together, we can have a conversation to determine if I’m a good fit for you.
