Successful therapy begins by creating a match between client and therapist. I believe in creating a safe and confidential space, where clients can work towards creating a life that feels good to them, whatever that may be. I enjoy working with adolescents and adults, taking a holistic approach, with the goal of mind, body and energy in balanced alignment. At the core of my work, is your relation to yourself, which serves as the foundation for your connection to others and the world around you. Together, we will explore the barriers that may prohibit you from reaching your fullest potential.

It takes courage to reckon with some of the most private, honest, scary, and hopeful places within you. Effective support during these times can be transformational. You may want to discover new ways of being in the world, your skin, and your life that feel authentic, and alive. Or, you may be wanting relief from painful relationship patterns, anger, grief, fear, self-criticism, “stuckness” or addiction. My clients often find my approach feels both comfortable and challenging, and facilitates greater self-love and empowerment. I hold a license in Mental Health Counseling, CAGS in Expressive Arts, and am IFS trained.
