I support handling real-time challenges and help people recover from painful happenings. I am skilled helping people recover from trauma, grief, loss and substance use disorders.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I am positive, hopeful and holistic in approach. I work to listen and understand what you want for your life, your strengths and motivations. We build from there toward your goal(s) at the pace that is best for you.

What you can expect from our first session

I’ll listen to understand what brought you to counseling and what you hope for from the experience. I'll keep checking in with you during our conversations to make sure I’m tracking well. We’ll talk about your strengths and goals. We’ll also talk about what research says about the issues you present, and I’ll offer you options about how we might move forward together. Folks typically say they feel relieved, truly heard, and have hope for a positive path forward through working together.
