Great to meet you!

Therapy is a journey, a time of reflection, and learning to turn towards your unseen parts to create a life you feel more in alignment with in all areas of your life. It’s about stepping into your truth, finding your authentic voice, and learning to be more self-compassionate and less rigid with how you view yourself, your life, those you care about, or have to work with. It’s about suffering less, and finding what you need to be more free, and skillful in this complex world.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I am a client centered therapist, meaning I want to meet you where you are. Down to earth, gentle, honest, and transparent with a lot of life experiences and genuine curiosity about people and the meaning they make of their lives. I am nonjudgmental and straight forward, and will walk beside you. I can balance well the acceptance and listening while you figure it out, AND also can suggest, guide, and teach.

What you can expect from our first session

I am a 9/11 Veteran, and have a vast amount of experience in the medical field, was a medic, nurse, massage therapist- and am very holistic minded in my approach to mental wellness- it is a whole body, mind and spirit experience. I have studied and see the huge benefits of body movement, yoga, nutrition, mediation, nature therapy and love to get creative in finding what heals and works for you.
