Great to meet you!

I believe that most people have the answers within themselves to work through their own problems - my role is to help you unlock that inner wisdom. I have experience helping people who are struggling with anxiety and depression, or who are numbing out through substance use. My clients are often working through life transitions and other challenging situations, such as relationship issues, grief, or chronic pain. Perhaps you have not been handling your emotions very well. You may even feel hopeless, or unsure how to articulate what you are feeling. Therapy is a collaborative journey to a more healthy state of mind.

My approach to therapy

I tend to approach therapy in a very gentle and collaborative way. I strive to offer authenticity, non-judgment, and compassionate accountability. I'm flexible in terms of modality, and at the end of the day I just want to make therapy work for you, so that you can live by your values, and pursue your goals.

What you can expect from me

Each person is unique, and they differ in their preferences, and what will be beneficial. Most people simply want a safe place to talk. If helpful I could offer more structured activities, like worksheets, coping skills, and even homework. I have a lot of clinical experience to draw from, but my main strength is that I'm friendly, and I'm a good listener.
