Great to meet you!

We all deserve a space of our own where we can receive the support we need to help us with life's inevitable problems. For over 10 years, I have supported individuals and couples with life's most common issues -- stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship problems. If you're seeing help for any of these, we might be a good match.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I take my work as a licensed marriage and family therapist seriously, but I don't take myself too seriously. Therapy is hard work but not a joyless, humorless endeavor. Let's make some space to celebrate progress and laugh at the silly moment along with taking a serious look at how dynamics in your life or relationship might be contributing to anxiety, depression, conflict with a partner, or substance use.

What you can expect from our first session

I strive for each of my clients to take into their everyday life tools they will use to slow down, take time to reflect, challenge unhelpful and self-defeating thoughts, adopt more functional behaviors, and be the best partner and friend they can be.
