Great to meet you!

I'm a marriage and family therapist who loves to work with couples and families. I also do a lot of individual work with folks navigating grief and loss. I am trained in ART and use this tool to help clients work through trauma.

My approach to therapy

Life is wild. Sometimes you have to cry and sometimes you have to laugh. I like to get creative on how to approach issues and I don't think one size fits all. We will work together to try a variety of ways to approach challenges.

What you can expect from me

The first session will be about establishing trust and seeing if you feel like we are a good fit. Feeling comfortable and trusting your therapist is crucial to creating a safe space to heal. Within the first session I hope to answer questions and help you know if you feel like we can work well together.
