Great to meet you!

You’ve worried about your child long enough. She seems to be changing right before your eyes. You can’t put a finger on the reason she seems so angry, anxious or lacking self- confidence. Maybe your parent/ child relationship is a bit strained and you’re not sure how to even connect with her anymore. As a therapist, I help my clients understand their feelings and utilize effective coping skills, create boundaries and feel more confident. You don’t have to struggle anymore.

My approach to therapy

I believe every client already possesses strengths that can be developed and expanded. Together, we'll identify patterns that are keeping you stuck, develop practical coping skills, challenge unhelpful beliefs and create meaningful change that extends beyond our sessions. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, self-esteem, relationship concerns, boundaries, life transitions or stress, we'll work together to help you move forward with greater confidence and clarity.

What you can expect from me

Clients describe me as approachable, genuine and direct. My goal is to help you leave each session with greater insight, practical tools and confidence to navigate life outside the therapy room.
