Great to meet you!

In addition to my training and experience, I truly care about and respect my clients. It's an honor to assist them in resolving issues and challenges that block their ability to and experience joy and happiness in a troubled world. Being a therapist is not just a job for me, it is my calling.

My approach to therapy

I approach a therapy session with an open mind and caring perspective. I believe in the innate heal-seeking well intentions of clients and am very open to meeting them where they are in the process of personal growth. My clients set the goals, pace and focus of their sessions, in which I join them to provide clear identification of issues that are obstacles in reaching their goals.

What you can expect from me

Our first session will be getting to know each other and determining if we are a good fit to work together. Together we will identify treatment goals and talk about methods and modalities that will facilitate reaching those goals.
