Great to meet you!

Pain cannot be avoided. It is only magnified when we try to shield ourselves from it. But we don't have to be in this process alone. It would be an honor to join you on your journey. I have worked with individuals for over a decade, partnering to manage grief, trauma, shame, relationships, substance use, depression and mental illness. Healing begins with small steps towards the glimmer of possibility. It is the slow walk to something more.

A bit about my approach to therapy

In our work together, we will look at how your life experiences have shaped you and determine what’s useful and what no longer serves you. I use foundations of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with trauma informed practice and holistic approaches to address the body/mind connection. I am trained in EMDR, mindfulness practice and substance abuse treatment

What you can expect from our first session

You came searching for a therapist for a reason. I would love to see if we are a good fit to work together; if we could start the process to achieve the changes you have been looking for. I look forward to hearing from you!
