I am easy to talk to, compassionate, and real. Clients often see a reduction in symptoms and improvement early on in therapy.

What sets me apart from other therapists is my strong intuition and empathy. I believe the most powerful factor in therapy is that the client feels deeply known and accepted. By providing a safe space for you to process any unresolved feelings or trauma, I can help you know yourself better and learn how to function optimally in this world. Together, we will work through the layers and focus on who you want to be.

Have you noticed that you have been feeling stuck, overwhelmed by your emotions, or preoccupied by certain thoughts? Often psychological pain has more to do with how we fight and judge our thoughts and feelings, and we end up in an exhausting internal struggle that we cannot win. I will work with you to explore this struggle, gain distance from it, and learn strategies to reduce its influence on your life. I have an active, warm and non-judgmental style. My work integrates Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), with motivational enhancement directly at the core.

People come to therapy for all different reasons. Perhaps you are feeling some discomfort or dis-ease, which may be getting in the way of your daily activities, social interactions or ability to focus on what needs to be done. Maybe you have concerns about or a desire to change unwanted behaviors, moods, or habits, or you may just be feeling “off” or stuck. Perhaps you are simply on a path of self-discovery. Whatever is showing up for you, I am here to help. My aim is to provide practical coping tools to alleviate symptoms/stressors, while also helping you to build a deeper sense of self, awareness, and overall well-being.

Hello, thank you for visiting my page! I am a licensed Creative Arts Therapist, and registered Drama Therapist.

I have experience working with folks struggling with a variety of concerns including life transitions, cross-cultural issues, trauma, grief and loss, and anxiety.

I usually work from a mindfulness-based cognitive-behavioral perspective, in which we examine how your thinking affects your emotions and behaviors. By becoming aware of unhealthy thought patterns, we can learn to think differently; and similarly, change our relationship with the associated negative feelings. I usually work in a more direct manner, giving you concrete tools that you can use to help yourself. Of course, all of this will depend upon you! Each treatment will be a collaborative process, depending on what works best for you.
