Therapy can be one of the most rewarding and impactful investments we make in life. It is uncomfortable and sometimes painful to confront parts of ourselves and our lives that we would rather hide or hide from. However, I repeatedly witness the benefits of confronting and exploring those parts, as my clients embrace both the challenges and joys of a deep therapeutic experience. They tend to appreciate my warm yet direct, and sometimes playful approach. I am most effective with those who want to feel, do, and be better, and those who recognize that healing, growth, and contentment is worth their investment in therapy.
Together, we'll explore how you came to think, feel, and behave as you do now. We will then use that understanding to help you process and heal from painful life experiences and develop effective coping skills. Beyond that, you will cultivate self-acceptance, harness your strengths, and live in a way that is congruent with your own values and goals.
Whether you're unsure where to start, or you know exactly what you want, I encourage you to reach out to me. I offer free 15-minute phone consultations, which allow me to answer some of your questions, and allow you to get a sense of what it may be like to work with me. I am currently accepting clients for virtual therapy in PSYPACT states.

I have the privilege of helping clients through difficult transitions (e.g., relocation, graduation, career and relationship changes), "stuck-ness"/stagnancy, lack of confidence, pet loss and grief, and many other challenges. I help them 1.) visualize their desired life, 2.) identify what's getting in their way, and 3.) figure out how to start living in a way that is authentic and value congruent.
