The foundation of my practice is based on the respect I have for my clients, and my therapeutic approach is collaborative and tailored to your needs. As a trained and experienced therapist, I am not only technically objective, but also provide you with emotional nourishment and assistance as you work through problem areas in your life. Psychotherapy is about growth and transformation and equips you to overcome challenges impacting your family, job or relationships. My areas of expertise include addiction, relationship or job-related issues, depression, anxiety and stress. I employ solution focused therapy based on psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness approaches. I am also a qualified Substance Abuse Professional (SAP) to evaluate employees who have violated a DOT drug and alcohol program regulation and makes recommendations concerning education, treatment, follow-up, testing, and aftercare.

I believe therapy should feel supportive, practical, and empowering. Clients often describe me as warm, direct, and easy to talk to. I work with adults who want to better understand their emotions, patterns, and relationships, and I focus on helping clients build skills they can actually use in daily life. You don’t have to have everything figured out to start—just a willingness to show up.

Reaching out for therapy can feel daunting. I am so glad you have taken this step. I work to provide a safe place to help you feel heard, understood and safe. My goal is to create a relationship with you, where you can bring your whole self. The parts that feel strong, the parts you struggle with and the parts that might make you feel shame or judgement.

As a licensed clinical social worker I have over 20 years experience working with adults navigating anxiety, depression, post partum mood disorders, and medical trauma. I love working with individuals facing major life changes and chronic stress, and grief and loss.
