I work best with adolescent and adult clients who appreciate a direct, to-the-point approach. I give lots of feedback and make my thoughts known. This approach tends to open up awarenesses that may have been unknown for a very long time. It is exciting to see this process unfold in individual psychotherapy.

Life can be overwhelming at times, causing us to feel anxious, depressed, lose our sense of self and affect our ability to have and maintain healthy relationships. Having someone to unpack all of these feelings with, gain insight into why we feel the way we do and ultimately choose differently for ourselves is so empowering.
