Sometimes folks feel really nervous or awkward when reaching out to start therapy. They don't know what to say or how to start. If that sounds like you, don't worry you're not alone. I'm here to make that first contact as painless as possible. Engaging folks that are hesitant or uncertain about the therapeutic process is my forte. Therapy occurs at your pace with you choosing how much or little you want to share. My goal is to provide you with a safe space to grow and learn about yourself and gain tools to help along your way. I believe that therapy is a partnership built on trust, a bit of humor, and lots of metaphors.
Over the past decade I've supported individuals from many walks of life who have struggled with difficult to treat issues like addiction, trauma, life transitions. I'm licensed to treat both mental health and substance use disorders. Not everyone that I see has issues with substances, but my expertise helps folks change challenging behaviors of all sorts.
I am truly passionate about therapy and supporting people as they grow, and would be honored to support you in navigating your journey. If you have questions, or want to connect by phone to see if we are a fit, please shoot me an email or give me a call!

It is hard to narrow down to my top areas because people do not fit neatly into diagnostic boxes. We will prioritize together addressing symptoms that create the most harm or difficulty in your life and learn tools that can be generalized to address other problem areas that arise and prevent symptoms from impairing life in the future.

When paired together, the strategies I use make the therapy process conversational. We address problems from a variety of angles to include exploring how we think, managing how we feel, and learning tools to engage in healthier behavior. Some strategies will provide almost immediate relief, while others are skills we will develop over time.
