One of my greatest joys in life is helping others. It hurts my heart to see others in pain believing something is wrong with them. I want you to know you are not alone. Life is full of commitments, work, stress, transitions, and other people. It is often hard to take time for ourselves. I work with clients experiencing a broad range of issues from anxiety and depression to managing grief or navigating divorce/separation. I strive to treat each client as an individual, meeting every client where they are along their life journey.
My style is holistic, client centered, and insight orientated. I am very down to earth. My hope is that you can come, relax, and speak your truth in a warm, comfortable, and nonjudgmental environment. My goal is simply to give my clients the tools and support they need to reach their goals.
Therapy is hard work, but if you are willing to put in the work, I am willing to help you along your journey to wellness. I believe the key to a good therapeutic relationship is honesty and willingness to commit to doing the work. If you are ready to commit, I can't wait to hear from you.
