I see therapy as a tool used to facilitate feeling empowered and positively engaged in life. I believe that we all have the capacity to grow, heal and live a life that is joyful, purposeful and fulfilling.
I have over 20 years of experience working with individuals and families providing strategies and support as they move toward a life that is aligned with their unique values and goals. I work with clients to take action to address their challenges, connect with joy, and move forward with confidence.
My style is warm, calm, and optimistic. My approach to therapy is strengths based and solution focused. I work with individuals making life transitions and with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues, career concerns, and in managing difficult emotions. I am here, and I am happy to help you.
