One of the most important factors in the success of therapy is the creation of a safe, confidential space. In this setting an individual can express all the thoughts, feelings and beliefs which they often feel unable to share, for fear of judgement or disappointing others. Clients often relate a great sense of relief when they verbalize these difficult or confusing thoughts and find that they are supported and validated. Once these inner voices are freely and safely expressed a client can more effectively identify patterns of beliefs which limit or alter and often hinder their efforts to feel whole and at peace.

My passion is helping others. Learning how to move through problems instead of resisting them reduces uncomfortable feelings. How we respond to life determines our level of fulfillment. I help clients improve life functioning and relationships in order to reach their potential. Depression, anxiety, substance abuse, self-esteem, eating disorders, school/academic issues, and relationship turmoil can get in the way.

Guided by person-centered therapy, I approach each individual with compassion, unconditional positive regard, and genuineness. I believe the therapy office should be a place where people feel safe exploring vulnerable and difficult experiences in life. Provided that safe space, psychotherapy should help reduce feelings of anxiety and depression, build confidence, and create more satisfying connections with others.

Whether you're seeking therapy for the first time, returning to therapy, or searching for a new therapist, I recognize that this is not the easiest process and applaud you for taking this step! I also recognize that sometimes we want to talk to someone outside of our inner circle that can provide an unbiased listening ear and perspective. I truly believe that the therapeutic relationship is one of the most important, if not most important, factors for effective therapy. Through my empathetic, supportive, and non-judgmental nature, I hope to create a safe space for you where we can have conversations that promote positive change.
