I am experienced in helping individuals develop the necessary coping skills and obtain the resources needed to overcome eating disorders, anxiety, and stress. I am here to provide a safe, trusting, non-judgmental environment for adults, teens, and adolescents to collaboratively determine what their goals might be and how to meet them. I am comfortable holding space for those who are grieving or processing traumatic events and experiences. I work to create a space where people feel safe, cared for, respected, and welcomed to explore the deeper layers of their experiences and the impact on their lives now.

I am not accepting new couples at this time. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, it is my desire to help clients experiencing anxiety or depression, learn ways to not only cope, but overcome. I enjoy assisting clients learn healthier communication and conflict resolution skills, and concurrently learn how to cope with life stressors better. I strive to help my clients gain a better understanding of themselves, and their problematic and possibly self destructive patterns. Sometimes just a new perspective on an old problem can help propel us toward making healthy changes in our lives.

I am honored to provide counseling for children and adolescents as well as adults. Life can be a series of adjustments and adaptations. We have highs and lows, and through it all, we must learn when to stay the course and when to pivot. People are designed to be in relationship with each other and to support each other along the way. I would be honored to come alongside you or your child from a fresh perspective and help you see how change and healing are possible. Counseling can provide a protective space to process what is going on without judgment and with someone who is advocating for the client to be the best they can be.

Often, we find ourselves stuck, with thoughts, feelings, and patterns that can undermine the hopes we have for ourselves and our lives. We may be struggling with depression or anxiety, a relationship, an inner critic that will not quiet, a lack of meaning/purpose, or life transitions. My intention is to create a safe, nonjudgmental, authentic space where all parts of you are welcome and where your full self is acknowledged and heard. With a deeply felt understanding of mind-body healing, I use a holistic approach that provides opportunities for greater physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

I use a person-centered approach to therapy. This means that I believe people are resourceful, capable of self-understanding, and are able to make the changes that they desire. By building a relationship based on respect, genuineness, and empathetic understanding I strive to create an environment where clients can work towards the growth and change they desire as I offer encouragement, support and constructive feedback along the way.

My approach to counseling is based on a Person-Centered approach as well as a Cognitive-Behavioral approach. I believe that the Therapeutic Relationship in counseling is the main ingredient for healing and growth.

I believe that the client has the ability to find solutions to their dilemmas within themselves, but sometimes need someone to walk alongside of them during this process.
