If you're seeking therapy, chances are that you're looking for a change or to find ways to cope with your struggles. I've found one of the most powerful things people gain from therapy is recognizing that you're not alone and that change is possible. My approach in therapy utilizes person-centered, psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and problem-focused therapies to understand your barriers toward growth. Whether you're struggling with depression, anxiety, phobias, body image, relationship issues, trauma, or everyday stressors, we can work to identify the source of those feelings and create a plan to help you grow.
I have training and experience working with individuals and couples of various sexual and gender identities and cultural backgrounds. Very often we experience feeling dismissed in our lives and I work to create a space where you will feel heard and understood.
I help provide insight and structure to your feelings and experiences so we can work together toward your goals. For those looking to find support through community and improve interpersonal relationships I also offer a group therapy option.
