Great to meet you!

Welcome, I'm glad you're here. I wear many different hats and enjoy working with adolescents and adults to address low self esteem, communication, anxious thoughts, scattered mind, or boundary setting. I also enjoy working with individuals who may be struggling with financial stress, career fulfillment and burnout, as I believe this is inextricable linked to mental health and wellbeing. I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space to support you.

I have a passion for working with adolescents and their families, as well as both younger and older adults individually. I enjoy working with clientele from diverse backgrounds and I strive to create a culturally sensitive, inclusive and affirming space.

My approach to therapy

As we work together we'll create a personalized framework, that may include traditional CBT, as well as, Somatic Techniques and Expressive Arts. These combined techniques allow for calming stress and tension felt within the nervous system, and for accessing inner knowledge and resiliency. I also employ resource mapping to identify outer supports and resources that may be available to you.

These techniques are utilized, in order to allow you, as the client, to be able to reclaim a healthy sense of self esteem and self worth, to increase the mind, body connection, and to develop a greater sense of resiliency, strength and authenticity, within your day to day life.

What you can expect from me

During the first session, you can expect to feel heard, listened to and valued. We will work collaboratively together to explore themes that come up, and create a framework, for future sessions.
