I approach therapy realistically and meet the client where they are at during each session. I approach therapy as a team (you and I) and believe success only occurs when we can trust one ano...

My hope and expectation is that my clients come exactly as they are; messiness and all. Life transitions, relationships, and past events can be complicated and hard to piece together on your own. Talking through these issues with another person can bring new perspective and energy. I try to match my approach to meet the needs of the client. Some prefer a more directive/guided therapy, whereas others need space to sit with big questions. We will work together to figure out your goals, needs, and ...

Therapy is a space where stories unfold and evolve. The stories we create about ourselves and our experiences shape how we understand our lives and the world around us. These stories can offer us comfort and strength, but at times, they may also bring distress or hold us back from living the life we desire. When we feel stuck in these limiting stories, we can feel hopeless. But together, we can explore these stories—how they’ve impacted you and what they mean. Through this process, we’ll work to...

The theories that inform my approach include Relational-Cultural, Emotionally Focused and Mind-Body Therapies. I believe the client is the expert in what they need, and it is my role to work collaboratively with the client to help th...
