Great to meet you!

I believe therapy should be real, not stiff. Therapy with me is collaborative, honest, and human. My style is relaxed, warm, direct, and funny when it helps. I work with people navigating grief, life transitions, self-esteem struggles, chronic health diagnosis, complex family dynamics, marital challenges and complicated expectations placed on women. We will sort though what's heavy, challenge the narratives that aren't' serving you and help realize a life that feels more like your own. My goal is to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and working towards growth.

Your therapy is not about me, but in today's climate most people want to know the values of their therapist. I bring a commitment to social justice and equality into my work. This perspective helps me create a space where clients feel seen, respected, and understood within the full context of their lives.

My approach to therapy

I have a direct approach; intentional, warm, challenging and validating. We will find humor and grief in unexpected places. Therapy is a journey in so many ways. I have 10 years of experience in medical settings and bring a unique understanding of the intersection of anxiety and chronic health issues.

What you can expect from me

We will ask each other questions, and ultimately you get to decide if you like me and if you think I can help you. My goal is to help you feel comfortable whether its your first time in therapy or you just haven't found the right fit in a therapist yet.
