I welcome those who find themselves in the unknown spaces of their lives, when transitions or change are calling them to shed what no longer serves them, and become more of who they truly are. I sit with you as a collaborative ally in the discovery of your own unique inner voice. While we may seek to understand old limiting beliefs, our deeper journey is toward uncovering the part of you that naturally moves towards its greatest wholeness and aliveness. Together we find the resources you already have to support your unfolding process.
Choosing a therapist that you feel comfortable and safe with is important. It takes time to get to know someone. My approach to psychotherapy is warm, compassionate, relational and gentle. I provide a safe space where all parts of you are welcomed just as they are.
I invite you to contact me to schedule a complimentary 20-minute phone or video consultation to see if we may be a good fit, and to answer any questions you may have.
