Great to meet you!

I'm a licensed therapist who believes therapy works best when clients feel safe, understood and are met with compassion. My education and clinical training are rooted in trauma-informed, evidenced based care and I tailor my approach to each individual. I work primarily with teens, adults and couples navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship concerns, life transitions and self-esteem challenges.

I utilize a cognitive behavioral and mindfulness based approach to explore faulty thought and behavior patterns and help clients connect to the treasure trove of inner strengths that we each possess. I believe that we have the answers within us, but may need help to unlock what is holding us back and discover what we need to move forward. My training in Attachment Focused EMDR and Accelerated Resolution Therapy can be helpful tools in understanding and healing from traumatic events and painful experiences. When working with couples, I use the Gottman Method to help couples develop the tools to achieve a happy and satisfying relationship.

Above all, I strive to create a calm, welcoming space where you can show up as you are and move forward at a pace that feels right for you.

My approach to therapy

I believe therapy is a collaborative process. Together we can identify goals and discover the path that is right for you. I tailor my approach to each individual rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all model. I am dedicated to helping you achieve balance, a sense of meaning and developing healthy and lasting relationships.

What you can expect from me

Your first therapy session is a chance for us to get to know each other and begin creating a space that feels safe, supportive and collaborative. We will discuss what brought you to therapy, your current concerns and how we can work together to achieve your goals in therapy.
