Great to meet you!

I often say that finding a good therapist is like finding a new pair of jeans- sometimes we have to try on a few to find the perfect fit. I'm the type of therapist who is going to laugh with you, cry with you, and show you that being vulnerable with yourself and others is a significant step towards living your best life.

I am trained in EMDR(eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) but prefer to customize treatment to fit your needs, often blending in tools from CBT(cognitive behavioral therapy)and IFS(internal family systems). I know that some days we show up ready to dive headfirst into deep work, while other days just showing up feels like enough.

I am not the therapist who is going to speak in a low, monotone voice, and I've been known to sprinkle in a curse word here and there. I think I would best be described as someone who is going to show up genuinely, meet you where you're at, and walk with you towards the change you want to see.

My approach to therapy

I am collaborative and treatment is led by you. My strengths in regard to specific changes are with those of you who are having a hard time managing anxiety, depression, and the stress that comes with being a human in the world we live in. If any of this sounds like I might be the right fit for you, please reach out!

What you can expect from me

In a first session, you can expect to discuss your motivation for starting therapy, ways that I may be able to support you, and to establish a warm, supportive environment.
