Great to meet you!

Historically, I tend to connect better with clients who have a stronger clinical need. In Layman's terms, if something terrible happened to you last week, or 20 years ago, & you need to talk about it, I can help you.

If your problems feel scary or overwhelming to you, they are likely issues I have experience working with. I don't shy away from working with folks who experience suicidal thoughts and persistent feelings of hopelessness.

I do all of my work in person because I practice more effectively that way and will rely on nonverbal cues, facial expressions, and gestures as I work with you. This provides a deeper and more substantial therapeutic experience. I meet with clients once a week in person, If you travel frequently, I may not be the right therapist for you.

My approach to therapy

People tend to meet me at a part of their life where things have become exceptionally difficult, and I am completely ok with that. My style is very collaborative. I'm not afraid to navigate a complex internal mental landscape with you. I don't shoot for immediate clinical gains, but progress over time that will be more meaningful and long lasting.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect a high level of presence and attentiveness from me. I take my work very seriously and find helping people through difficult moments of their life extremely rewarding and fulfilling.
