To me, therapy is a warm, comfortable space we build together; it’s an hour outside of your everyday life, a shared place we can process whatever needs to be processed from the safety of. Care, compassion, non-judgement and a genuine therapeutic relationship are the foundations of our work together and are my main priorities. My focus is always holistic: we have to look at every layer - from the cues your body and nervous system are giving you to the systemic messages surrounding you - to reach…

Maya Angelou said, “There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you”. Our stories are profound and provide significant insight into who we are and where we have come from. It’s an honor to be invited into the experiences of someone’s life, and I believe that psychotherapy provides a fresh opportunity to tell our stories in meaningful ways. My therapeutic approach involves addressing the source of difficult behaviors and allowing clients to share their stories in a safe space.…

I work with people who are ready for things to get better, but don't know where to start, or can't manage to make the desired changes. If you're reading this you can tell that something is wrong, but might not know where to s…

Has a life transition or loss left you feeling overwhelmed? I strive to help folks like you to build a more compassionate and loving relationship with yourself, t…
