Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and Board Certified Art Therapist (ATR-BC) with more than 12 years of experience. I welcome a wide ranch of challenges, though some of my areas of expertise include: anxiety, burn-out, perfectionism, relationship issues, life changes, grief, and women's issues. I work holistically, meaning that I take into consideration many aspects of your wellbeing. My interests include spending time in nature, art, reading, and playing piano.

My approach to therapy

My approach is attachment focused, trauma-informed, and collaborative. Together we will take inventory of where you currently are in life, explore your understanding of yourself and your relationships, collaborate to create goals, shine a light on limiting beliefs and identify new ways of seeing yourself and the world. Some of the treatment modalities I use are; art therapy, CBT, DBT, and mindfulness.

What you can expect from me

During our first session, we’ll talk about what brought you to therapy, your thoughts and feelings about these challenges, and what your desired outcomes are. We’ll create a roadmap on how to get you there.
