About

Overwhelmed. Anxious. Depressed. Stuck. These feelings can act as signals, indicating need for change. Coping skills used in the past may no longer serve, yet are ingrained, often unconscious and difficult to change. People often seek therapy when life has become painful and unmanageable. I like to work with individuals who are ready to explore and challenge limiting patterns- to discover and commit to a healthier way of being. My role as your therapist is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where progress can be made and to provide and guide you with the tools to make that possible. I draw from a range of evidence-based modalities, while always cultivating a mindfulness based and goal-oriented lens. I tailor my methods to the individual client and maintain a collaborative approach to therapy. I believe in an integrative perspective that treats the whole person. I am wellness, strength-based, & holistically focused.
