Great to meet you!

My passion for helping individuals and families drives all of the work I do. I see a limited number of clients for individual, family, and couples therapy. My ultimate objective is to always help clients reconnect to the people, things, and activities that matter most to them.

My approach to therapy

Are you ready to get the work done? Let me help you create a protected time to dedicate to the things that you deeply want, need and care about. Depression, anxiety, shame, addiction, and anger are usually symptoms of things within yourself or your life that you have neglected, given up on, or settled for. Instead of just treating the symptoms, I want to help you get to the center of what these emotions are trying to tell you.

What you can expect from me

My approach is to help guide you towards the goals you set for yourself. If it's dealing with interpersonal conflict, family or relationship issues or just overall stress and avoidance my approach is to work with where you are at to help you to get to where you want to go.
