Welcome! You found your way here. Perhaps chronic patterns of feeling depressed, anxious, or hopeless have prevented you from reaching life goals. Perhaps emotions and memories of past events intrude your thoughts, and you're wondering if you can ever reach the "before" time again. Starting therapy is often a decision people make when what they’ve tried on their own no longer feels sufficient.
Creating a safe, warm, and trusting professional relationship with you is the cornerstone to my approach. During sessions we explore the daily cycle of events and emotions and the deeper questions underneath it - who you are, how come, and what it could mean to be your full self.
My approach tends to work best for people who are reflective, curious about their internal world, and willing to engage consistently in therapy. The person you will meet in session is authentically me: an inquisitive, humorous, and contemplative therapist. Please reach out to me for a free 15-minute consultation!

"
I use a mix of several approaches in sessions and tailor them to your needs. The first one to three sessions are spent getting to know you and identifying treatment goals. CBT involves looking at the relationship between thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and underlying core beliefs. Person-centered therapy focuses on the therapeutic relationship as it happens and on what it means to be understood.
