You want to feel empowered to speak up but struggle to do so, whether in your relationships, at work or with big societal issues. You're tired of carrying the load, not only for yourself, but others as well. You're experiencing a life transition, loss/grief or desire a change in your life. Perhaps your unique stressors have piled up so high you no longer know yourself, your passion or your direction. Whatever your circumstances, you wake up each day feeling depleted and unable to get unstuck from the spiral. It's exhausting and you just want to feel better. You want to wake up with energy and hope for the day.
You want to be able to move through the adversities and changes happening in your life with a sense of control and confidence. I can help you feel empowered and find your voice, not that everything is going to be perfect, but that you can handle hard things and feel fulfilled at the end of the day.
Whether you are going through an unexpected tragedy, endless difficulty or feel stuck in creating change for yourself, I can help you reconnect with yourself and create action for real change. My clients often express that they feel safe and cared for while working with me and appreciate the genunie conversations. I hope to help you with creating change!

I am a Nature Informed Therapist and incoporate natural elements with my clients, using nature as my co-therapist. This might look like a walk and talk session, sitting in nature or engaging with natural elements in an office setting or virtually. Other treatment modalities I utilize inconjunction with nature include, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral.
