Great to meet you!

In my 19 years of work with people facing serious illness and cancer, I have walked with individuals and families of all ages and backgrounds through some of the most challenging and vulnerable times in their lives. Watching people discover their strength and resilience during life's difficult moments is what inspires me to continue this work.

My approach to therapy

I approach each client with openness and genuine interest in your experience. We will explore your current situation, past patterns, challenges and successes. Together we will find treatment techniques that fit your individual needs and strengths.

What you can expect from me

My clients can expect to leave our sessions feeling heard, understood and cared for. They will take concrete strategies with them to continue their growth between sessions. I hope to help my clients recognize the strength within themselves and feel empowered to face life's challenges.
