Many of us undergo difficult, painful, and traumatic events in our lives – things that are not only painful while we experience them, but that have a way of sticking to us long after the fact. The impact of these events can make us lose touch with who we really are. This often manifests in feeling stuck in unwanted behaviors, feelings, and negative beliefs about ourselves. These things can be very hard to manage. I specialize in understanding these issues and how they affect us.

Making sure you have a personalized, meaningful experience in therapy is very important to me. Let's find your voice and let's help you into a better spot so you can feel good about life. I have been in practice since 2003 working across many different settings. Through our initial discussions we will explore what may be underlying your current concerns and customize therapy so that your experience is meaningful. If you've ever felt like your previous therapists "just sat there and nodded", you won't have that experience here. I ask lots of questions and will keep you engaged throughout our time together.

I am dedicated to creating a safe space so that you can explore challenges and learn new skills. I believe in being consistent and transparent, so that you know what to expect in our meetings.
