Great to meet you!

I've been told I'm an anti-therapist. Done in good humor I suppose, this moniker was given to me as a gesture of appreciation. It's my unyielding commitment to find interesting, and novel ways to support my clients. No two problems are alike and I hope to join you in addressing the unique circumstances of your life in a manner that honors your best hope for finding a way forward.

My approach to therapy

I am trained in the tradition of Narrative Therapy. This practice focuses on the way we make sense of our lives and lived experience. Simply put, the stories we tell ourselves about our lives and living are powerfully shaping of our experience and are determinant of the view we take of ourselves, our relationships and our future.

What you can expect from me

My clients often break new ground on ways to respond to the challenges that bring them in to meet with me.
