Partnering with you to improve the quality of your life: that is my goal as your therapist. I'm here to encourage, support, empower, and listen. During our first session we will determine your goals for therapy and what changes you want to make to improve your life. To best help you, I use an integrative technique, designed to meet you where are ready to start, and sessions are tailored to your needs and goals. One of the most important therapeutic factors, according to research and my own experience, is finding the right fit with your therapist.

Loneliness, negativity, and our reactions can severely impact our mental health. Ironically, it is sometimes easier to push away people than deal with difficult feelings. We choose this path by abusing substances, alcohol, avoidance, etc. When we run from our feelings and challenges, we are hurting ourselves and others. Together we can work through these difficult experiences and navigate around the painful emotions to feel better and find joy again.
