Great to meet you!

Feeling like you are stuck, overwhelmed? Life threw you a curve ball? My heart desires to provide you with a safe space to express your thoughts/feelings, gain clarity, and be supported. I'm a clinical therapist who works with teens and adults who have ongoing challenges with depression, anxiety, trauma, phase-of-life transitions, caregiving, and work-related stressors. With 28 years of clinical experience, my goal is to start encouraging you to see healing and transformation.

A bit about my approach to therapy

Sessions will provide you with the space to express your thoughts and feelings. In feeling safe and comfortable, you'll be able to gain clarity and be understood and heard. The therapy process is collaborative. There isn't a "one size fits all" approach to therapy. Our sessions will fit your specific needs and concerns.

I draw from strength-based therapeutic approaches & techniques such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, Dialectical-Behavior Therapy, and Solution-Focused.

What you can expect from our first session

People who know me often say that I am a good listener who can help people feel heard and understood which helps people feel seen and start to heal.
