I view therapy as a collaborative relationship. By providing a respectful, judgment-free atmosphere, I hope you will feel comfortable sharing the thoughts, feelings and behaviors that are concerning to you.

No one has the blueprint for life's challenges. Clients I have worked with have felt overwhelmed, unsure, and motivation was low. Many experience negative thinking patterns, stress, difficulty with concentration, and hopelessness. These challenges may have impacted well-being, relationships, work, or school.

Clients see me to feel supported in their journey, learn new skills and tools, increase executive functioning, create and support relationships, find success, and boost mental health.

I seek to create a space where all the different aspects of who you are may feel welcome. Compassion and trust are at the core of our work.
