I have a passion for journeying with individuals and families who have a hunch or a longing for something different, better, in their lives. Together I collaborate with folks to address how neglected hunches may breed uncomfortable symptoms such as burn out, addictions, isolation and frustrations within relationships. By exploring values, strengths, and communication styles I coach clients through their discomforts and empower them to bring forth a new sense of self-worth and direction.
As a social worker my perspective is to use a strength-based approach with Motivational Interviewing, Gottman Method Couples Therapy and a DBT skills to listen deeply and help individuals cultivate / strengthen their own resilience, creativity and internal resources to thrive.
I want to partner with individuals to help them address feelings of longing and work to help them connect with their passions and people they share their life with. I have helped individuals of various ages navigate through the complexities of addiction, trauma, anxiety, depression, grief and burn out.

I employ evidenced based practices, including mindfulness, ACT, CBT, DBT, and eco-therapy. My approach to healing is rooted in naming the strengths my clients take for granted. I infuse every session with motivational interviewing, curiosity, empathy and humor.
