Because no two patients are alike, therapy should be tailored to each patient, rather than trying to treat everyone with the same theoretical approach. I believe that a therapist’s job is to guide the patient as they learn to change the behaviors and thinking styles that may have once been helpful, but are now getting in their way. Most importantly, I believe it is a therapist's job to teach their patients the skills necessary to eventually function independent of their therapist, allowing them to eventually leave therapy instead of being stuck with having weekly sessions for the rest of their lives!

Are you or your teen having difficulty with relationships and want to learn new strategies to help stay calm and self-regulated despite intense feelings? Do past traumatic events negatively impact your current relationships? Are you or your teen feeling stressed out, overwhelmed, angry, or depressed? My approach to treatment is founded on developing a strong and empathic relationship with each patient, which facilitates meaningful changes, increased self-awareness, and personal growth. We can work together to develop skills that instill hope and confidence in your own, or your teen’s, ability to overcome life challenges that arise.

I believe that everyone has the ability to change. Sometimes it can be difficult being in the driver seat alone, so why not allow me to be there for you as the passenger? From my perspective, the client plays an integral role as the expert of their life. In sharing their journey with me, I hope to help them work towards sustainable growth and healing. My ideal client is someone who may be experiencing difficulty navigating their day-to-day responsibilities due to past trauma, current life stressors, and relationship issues.

Through the support of therapy, people can live full and meaningful lives while managing mental health symptoms and the challenges they bring. Focusing on patient-centered goals, I will guide you in exploring anxiety and mood issues, cognitive distortions, behaviors that may no longer be serving you, and relationship patterns. We will work together to address your current challenges, with consideration of past experiences (where you come from) and identifying values to support motivation to change (where you want to go).

As a humanistic psychotherapist, I am person-centered and focus on the uniqueness of each individual. I believe that a positive, empathetic relationship between therapist and client is essential to effective therapeutic change. I respect my clients as equals who are ultimately responsible for their own growth and direction. People find me interactive, easy to relate to, and sensitive to their needs. Along with talk and insight work, I incorporate a wide variety of techniques into the therapeutic process, including cognitive-behavioral techniques, guided imagery, mindfullness practices, communication exercises, relaxation exercises and other awareness techniques.

Sometimes life can feel overwhelming and disheartening. Are you struggling with negative beliefs about yourself and the world? Do you feel jumpy, on edge, and unable to focus because your thoughts are running laps inside your head? Or maybe you feel dulled, disconnected and numbed. You aren't crazy. Any and all of these are common survival responses to trauma, but maybe they hurt more than help in your everyday life. Everyone has the innate ability to heal from trauma - individual or collective, current or generational - with the right circumstances. If you're ready to take gentle and concrete steps towards healing, let's talk.

Are you questioning the role of alcohol/drugs in your life or the life of a loved one? Are you feeling anxious, depressed, or just unsettled and wondering if alcohol, substances, or addictive behaviors are contributing? Perhaps you're in early recovery and need support from someone who understands? Often we address our mental health while avoiding discussing alcohol, drugs. or other addictive behaviors. Or, we try to address addictive behaviors without really dealing with underlying issues which led to the addictive behaviors in the first place. The truth is we need to address both simultaneously in order to make real progress.
