Do you feel stuck in your life and don't know what to do? You’re not alone. Sometimes we may feel lost and unfulfilled, but you don’t have to go through this alone! I am here to accompany you on this journey. Everything you need is already within you, and together we will develop the necessary tools to assist you in harnessing your inner strength to live your most fulfilling and authentic self. As an experienced clinician, our therapeutic work will be a collaborative one. Together we will identify and enhance your strengths while exploring the root causes of your identified challenges and triggers. This is the first step!
My work is guided by the belief that everyone has a right to feel empowered and embodied in their relationship with themselves, their desires, and those they care about. Together we will hold space for the full range of your experiences, sorting through the messiness and complexity that life brings to find greater acceptance, fulfillment, and harmony.
My main objective is to empower you, cultivate hope, and help you utilize skills to attain balance and peace. I provide treatment in a safe space where you will feel valued, understood, and supported. My professional background includes individual, adult, adolescent, and women's issues. Please get in touch with me for a free phone consultation.
