I serve children (6+), teens, and adults (up to 40) for individual therapy. I also conduct couples therapy, family therapy and i offer parent sessions. I use a mixture of models to meet each client where they are currently at in their mental health journey.

I have been a child and family therapist since 2009, and volunteered in the field of grief and loss for 14 years, working with grieving children (ages 3 to 18) who lost a loved one.

When life starts to feel overwhelming, fatiguing, and chaotic, reaching out for help can be especially difficult. Then as the challenges and issues of life become impossible, we start to lose hope. The truth is, we all have the ability to live a more abundant life, no matter how difficult our circumstances may be. Things like addictions, trauma, anxiety, depression, and difficult relationships can all be barriers to abundance. While these barriers may seem overwhelming, they don’t have to define you or prevent you from healing, growth, and a life that is full. When you can’t get past these barriers on our own, it’s okay to get help.

Life can be complicated and stressful at times and change can include triggers making the journey complicated. During these times it is human to reach out for empathy, support, and safety. My therapy approach is guided by the needs of each individual I work with. We will collaboratively create affirming, safe space to share and address your needs and concerns, explore potential solutions, and honor growth, no matter what stage your are at along your journey to a more fulfilled life. I employ a psychodynamic approach to therapy for healing of trauma and identity exploration. I treat all individuals with dignity and respect.

As human beings, we are prone to intense joy, deep sorrow and a wide spectrum of emotions in between. Therapy is a place to learn how to navigate these changing terrains of life. As a therapist, I will come alongside you to listen, reflect, speak to, and bear witness to your particular experiences in life. I believe many personal struggles are relational and that we experience healing through genuine connection with ourselves and others. I'm passionate about helping people move from a life of fear and feeling stuck to a life of freedom, feeling grounded, and developing a growing trust in yourself and others.

My approach to therapy is rooted in the notion that human beings are resilient and capable of growth. I believe that therapy should be a safe space to enhance self-awareness and nurture self-compassion, as well as an opportunity to practice taking actions that propel us toward the person we want to be. Together, we can navigate life stressors, transitions, anxiety, self-destructive mindsets and patterns, relationship difficulties, existential crises, and grief and loss.
