Have you always been called a sensitive person? As highly sensitive people, we can often feel ashamed by the depth of our emotions. Therapy can be a space to unpack our inner experience, understand the value of our emotionality, and begin the journey of embracing this part of ourselves. I specialize in working with young adults to change their relationship with sensitivity. Whether you’re navigating a breakup, difficult family dynamics, or career stress, we will honor and give space to your emotions while building skills to cope with them. Together, we will release the shame and use your emotional depth as a guiding light forward.

You may be struggling to “show up” fully in your life, whether due to past or present traumas, difficult life transitions, or just navigating the whiplash of our current reality. It’s important to me to facilitate sessions that are candid and down to earth. I want to get to know you and your goals while offering tools and takeaways that leave you feeling heard, inspired, and ready to tackle the issues that have led you here. I know it can be overwhelming trying to navigate all that life can throw at you- therapy can be a space where you can face these stressors head on, with unwavering support.

We all feel overwhelmed at times! My goal is to provide support, offer a different perspective, and arm you with the tools to manage life's challenges more effectively.

Over the past 35 years, I've had the privilege of working with individuals in a multitude of environments from residential facilities to outpatient community mental health clinics. My experience has taught me the importance of respecting one's humanity through the use of a compassionate, nonjudgemental, and supportive approach. It is my firm belief that we all have the capacity for change. There is an inherent resilient nature within us that can be strengthened and utilized to achieve goals. My practice is directed toward empowering individuals to build on their strengths. I value "seeing the person and not the diagnosis".
