My clients often feel overwhelmed by life's challenges and believe they lack the tools and mental resources to cope on their own. They may be dealing with Grief and loss, big life changes, stress, anxiety or depression symptoms. Many have found that their once-helpful survival strategies no longer work and may even be counterproductive.I specialize in helping people identify and take small steps towards their goals, whether in their career, relationships, or personal growth. Together, we work to create positive, lasting change.
Through motivational interviewing and behavioral activation, I empower clients to achieve self-identified goals. My specialty lies in fostering self-esteem and motivation, guiding individuals to recognize their strengths and aspirations. Together, we'll navigate challenges, cultivate resilience, and create a roadmap for lasting positive change.
Therapy is all about building a safe and comfortable relationship between the client and the therapist. I would love to connect with you, hear about where you are at right now in your life and what roadblock you are facing. Reach out and we can connect to see if I am a good fit to walk alongside you during this time in your life.

I often use parts of acceptance and commitment therapy, motivational interviewing, and behavioral activation in my practice. In your first session, I will look to understand what brought you to therapy and understand what you want to achieve. We will explore how acceptance, mindfulness, and behavior change strategies might help you have psychological flexibility and well-being.
