Great to meet you!

My passion is for helping others get unstuck and flourish! The focus of my practice is geared toward helping you develop affirming responses and positive interpretations of what has happened in your life. I will help you have agency and integrity in the midst of a life transition or challenge that has you feeling stuck or out of ways to help yourself.

My approach to therapy

My client-centered and supportive therapeutic approach is led by YOU. Your goals and intentions for seeking therapy are at the forefront during each session. There are many ways to address your issues, which are openly discussed and guided by you throughout our sessions. I view "problems" as opportunities, as windows or doors opening for the client to heal and change.

What you can expect from me

Our first session will be about whatever you are ready to share and want me to know first. We will talk about initial insights and ideas for setting goals and how to achieve them. My therapy practice is guided by hope and compassion. Over time you will increasingly be empowered to know, love, and trust yourself. I will guide you to practice compassion for yourself and the life you have lived and you will grow in hope for your life ahead.
