Great to meet you!

It can be incredibly difficult to untie the emotional knots that complicate relationships, self-confidence, and understanding the past. Therapy is a safe opportunity to uncover these core issues and learn practical techniques that foster deeper insight. I believe that with this insight you can make meaningful, lasting changes.

My approach to therapy

When working with families, I know that parents want to understand how to help their children and teens overcome social-emotional obstacles standing in the way. I use an integrative approach - blending the exploration of past patterns with practical skill-building.

What you can expect from me

My goal is to create an experience that is uniquely tailored to you, using advanced training in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship or parenting difficulties.
