My approach as a therapist is to honor the inherent worth and dignity of all. My intention is to deeply listen, and to be truly present.

I draw from psychodynamic, relational, trauma-informed, and somatic perspectives. You'll have the opportunity to learn techniques for relaxation and stress management.

I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma, stress, spiritual issues, among other challenges. Often, what clients need first is to know that they are not broken, damaged or abnormal. Thoughts and feelings are normal, your relationship to them makes all the difference.
