I believe that therapy is for everyone. When we feel safe, validated and understood, we each have the ability to be empowered to live our best lives. Often, we have stories, , beliefs, behaviors and unhealed parts that prevent us from moving forward. My goal is to work with you and help you find the tools to truly know yourself, and to create the healthiest version of yourself and your life that you can.
I have over 20 years of experience as a creative Music Therapist, working with adults and children in inpatient and outpatient settings, schools and at end of life. As a talk therapist, I am trauma-informed, certified in DBT, use CBT, ACT, MET, strengths-based and person-centered therapy. I enjoy working with individuals, couples and in groups.
Life is hard. Asking for help is hard. You're already here so if you're ready to take the first step, I'm here... let's give it a try!

All of my interventions are trauma-focused and informed. I regularly use CBT to help you identify core beliefs that are holding you back. Motivational Interviewing helps us to identify inconsistencies in behavior & goals, and person-centered, strengths-based therapy work to empower you to hold the wheel. If you're open to Music Therapy and mindfulness, these are easily accessible coping skills!
