Seeking therapy is an act of courage and vulnerability. I meet you where you are and provide warmth, authenticity and compassion to help you obtain your goals. I value active discussion and feedback to help you feel empowered in making decisions and building resilience. My areas of interest are providing anxiety support to teens and adults, assisting with identity exploration, grief work, coping with existential problems and supporting couples.
I use an integrative approach in sessions, understanding that each person I see may need different support. I provide a space beyond just listening and affirming. I also give gentle feedback, practical tools, coping strategies and depth work to help you transform your personal relationships and self.
Finding a therapist that feels like a good fit for your life is critical on your healing journey. If my approach resonates with you, I have openings at this time. Take care and I would be honored to support you in your journey towards healing.
