I believe that psychotherapy is an active process resulting in clarity and change. It can help identify ineffective patterns of thinking and behavior, which may create stress, emotional problems, stress related medical problems, addiction problems, and/or relationship problems. Sometimes the work can be difficult but can also be profoundly rewarding and life changing. I believe in the power of positive change and would love to help you turn your stress into a life balance.

I believe we can find relief from these problems by discovering our strengths, learning about our core needs and how those impact our emotions, and improving our interactional patterns with those we are in relationships with.

My counseling experience includes working with children, individuals, couples, and families. My approach is gentle, safe and non-judgmental. Each individual, couple, and family is unique, thus I provide varying treatment approaches. I draw on approaches that integrate mind-body-spirit; behavioral; and strength-based. When I work with couples and families I drawn from a systematic approach, meaning the couple and/or family unit functions as a whole and when one person is struggling, so is the rest of the family. My role is to help assist you in discovering the unhealthy patterns that are keeping you stuck.

I am a neurodiversity-affirming and trauma-informed counselor who believes in the power of human connection. In systems and cultures that often tell you to handle your difficulties independently and quietly, it can be difficult to seek help. As a fellow neurodivergent being, I particularly enjoy working with folks who are neurodivergent or think they may be from a strength-based framework. I also have a passion for working with survivors of trauma and collaborating to re-establish a sense of safety and trust in relationships.
