I draw from many therapeutic modalities including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Mindfulness Based Sobriety.
We often go through life wearing a mask, pretending to be “ok." But, underneath it all, every human being has a need to feel and to heal. I often hear people say they feel like a failure for seeking therapy; I would argue it takes courage and vulnerability to seek support. I offer a safe and comfortable space for you to be honest and open about how you are feeling. I am always honored and grateful when my clients trust me to support them on their journey to wholeness.

My role is to create an affirming, empowering, and safe space for you to work towards your goals. My goal is to partner with you as we explore thought patterns and behaviors that do not serve you, process and learn about emotions, and identify the strengths you already possess. Starting therapy can be daunting but I promise to meet you where you are with genuineness, patience, and empathy.

In my experience, a person who seeks therapy wants solutions that work. The fact that you are considering therapy is proof that you have more strength, and solutions, than you may be aware of today. Therapy is not about eliminating the inevitable problems in life but, rather, learning how to cope effectively and grow when they occur. Therapy is essentially a college course where you're the only subject. An effective therapeutic alliance can help people build the life that they want and deserve. My style is direct and active. I rely on honesty to guide our work together.

Everyone has problems. We cannot control the circumstances or people that show up in our lives, but we can decide how we are going to respond to them. Not knowing how you feel, what you think or what you want contributes to confusion, frustration, anxiety and depression.

Developing assertive communication skills and understanding your own emotional boundaries are essential to managing distressing symptoms and situations.
