Great to meet you!

You should know you are in good hands with a therapist who will actively support you in reaching your personal goals. I have extensive experience in client-centered, cognitive behavioral, and solution-focused therapy that is directly relevant to young adults, couples and families.

My approach to therapy

I specialize in and support clients through both my professional and personal life experiences. I have a family with three children (and two dogs) who are either transitioning into college, are in college or have just graduated, so I really get it!

What you can expect from me

My therapeutic approach will help you to prioritize and communicate your needs, feel more secure in yourself, learn to adjust, think differently, be confident in problem-solving and decision-making skills, be less hard on self and boost self-esteem. A big focus is emphasis on being present, grounded and finding balance.

I ensure therapy is a safe space to navigate emotional moods, anxiety, transitions, and uncertainty. I want you to feel supported, to feel heard and to feel validated.
