Great to meet you!

My approach to therapy is one of mutual respect and collaboration. I help clients face challenges head on and develop strategies to make life more fulfilling. I believe in the power of a strong, therapeutic relationship and believe it is vital to making progress together. I have extensive experience working with LGBT folks, those who've experienced trauma, and those with depression and anxiety.

My approach to therapy

I love my work, I am passionate and honored to be part of this profession. I work from a relational perspective and believe there is power in the therapeutic relationship. I incorporate aspects of CBT, DBT, and eco-systemic therapies into my work with clients.

What you can expect from me

Most people who work with me find that their relationships with others are stronger, more satisfying and they feel less shame, fear, and sadness.
