Great to meet you!

If you are looking for a therapist who will help you feel accepted, supported and free to process your feelings and thoughts in a safe judgment-free space, you will find me a good fit for you. I won't tell you what to do but will gently guide you through your journey toward your goals and your own decisions. I love working with adults (18+) and helping them navigate challenges with depression, anxiety, grief and loss, LGBTQIA+ and life transitions issues in a warm and compassionate environment.

My approach to therapy

I come from the perspective of a collaborative approach and make sure my clients feel empowered, heard, validated, and able to heal at their own pace. I use an eclectic mix of cognitive-behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, solution-focused therapy, and mindfulness.

What you can expect from me

I always aim to create a warm, accepting, trustworthy relationship with my clients. My goal is to build a therapeutic alliance where they feel accepted and respected for their individuality, have the right and capacity for self-determination, and are fully involved in the treatment process from beginning to end.
