My style is client-centered, authentic and strengths-based. I will be a catalyst for helping you to see and understand yourself, so that you can live your life at your highest potential. Through active listening, empathy, and validation of experience, we will uncover the courage and skills you have within you in order to achieve positive, lasting change.
I utilize Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), Radical Self Acceptance, Mindfulness and Internal Family Systems (IFS) techniques. I aim to foster a culturally sensitive environment and to be compassionate, open and thoughtful in my work with clients. I especially welcome those in the LGBTQIA+ community--and those who are questioning their sexuality or gender.
Life will always have challenging or difficult times. Together we will help you to develop and strengthen the life-lasting skills you need to manage your mood, stress and relational difficulties. This collaborative process will leave you feeling resilient, understood and ready to engage more fully in your life.

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or trauma related to their relationships or family. In regular sessions, we work together to understand the issues at hand and work to fully resolve emotional injuries, both current and from the past. My clients often report feeling relief within just a couple sessions, and report sustained improvement over time.

I tailor my methodology to each client. However, I am trained in Emotion Focused Therapy and that is my primary lens. That means that I believe our emotions are very important indicators in our lives. I work with each client to explore what their emotions are revealing to them about what is needed in their life at this time.
