I believe, and the research clearly indicates, that the bond you form with your therapist is the biggest predictor of outcomes. I therefore place a high emphasis on establishing a warm, safe environment for our relationship to grow. I conceptualize therapy as a shared endeavor at pattern finding. If we can understand the patterns that contribute to your difficulties, we can address the root causes of those challenges and open up new ways of experiencing yourself and others. In other words, why does "x" keep happening and what new experiences are possible. I balance warmth, compassion, and empathy with honest, direct feedback.

I provide therapeutic care and support for children and young adults facing changes or challenges. In my work with this age-group over the past 11years, I have found that an incredible amount of development, exploration, and identify formation occurs during these stages of life. It can be difficult at times to separate out who we really are, from the problems and situations we may face. Through my strengths-based approach, I aim to provide a safe and encouraging space for each of my clients to work through their unique experiences, identify their individual strengths, find healing, explore their goals, and recognize their potential.

In the midst of life’s highs and lows, it is inevitable to sometimes feel disconnected or confused. I believe hard experiences and challenges are chances to meet ourselves and to touch the depths of who we really are. Often, who we truly are gets buried under who we were taught to be in order to obtain love or be successful. I am passionate about working with individuals and couples to uncover old narratives and defeating patterns in order to discover how to live authentic and fully connected lives, to both ourselves and each other. Inspired by personal development and growth, our work will help you achieve your desires and goals.
