Great to meet you!

"We're all just walking each other home" -Ram Dass. My therapeutic approach aims to provide a safe, nonjudgmental environment that meets clients where they are at. I have a great deal of experience with clients who have experienced trauma, depression, anxiety, as well as those with substance use problems.

My approach to therapy

I utilize a strengths-based approach, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Motivational Interviewing. I have extensive training in meditation and yoga, and bring elements of mindfulness and somatics into therapy.

What you can expect from me

I strongly believe in meeting clients where they are at. Whether this is your first experience entering therapy, or you've tried several modalities already, we will work together to find an approach that feels safe, effective, and aids you to meet your goal
