As a therapist, I am interested in your thoughts and feelings as well as your beliefs. I am equally interested in the experiences you had growing up in your family. I look at you both as an individual and as a member of a multigenerational family. I believe past experiences shape the core beliefs we have about ourselves and the world and influence the choices we make in the present. Although therapy often focuses on problems, I believe that good therapy also identifies and builds on a client's existing strengths and resources. Good therapy is a respectful collaboration.

Change and well being are possible. Relationships and circumstances of life often present challenges that overwhelm us mentally, emotionally, and physically. As a result we develop blocks in our thinking, feelings, and develop physical symptoms that cause distress and prevent us from functioning at an optimal level. I am dedicated to understanding your unique experiences and history. Together we develop a plan creating a well balanced integration between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. Development of trust and the practice of mindful awareness enables self reflection, clarity of perspective and compassionate understanding of your history as it impacts present day choices.

My passion and expertise lies in helping young adults work through insecurities and the uncertainties of adulthood. It can be difficult to find your way in relationships, career/education, and overall identity. Unfortunately there is no clear and direct path to take. This uncertainty can lead to self-doubt, “imposter syndrome”, and frustration. Maybe you are feeling stuck- you are trying your best to create the life you want but are hitting dead ends. You’ve turned to your support system but are left feeling a nagging want for more clarity and direction.
