With 12 years of experience providing individual and family therapy, I have both the clinical knowledge and life experience to connect with and support a wide range of clients. I have a down to earth, compassionate style that won't leave you guessing or feeling judged. I help people listen to themselves and address their deeper needs, rather than being focused on coping with symptoms.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

I will get to know a bit about your background and current needs. We will start to build a rapport and understanding of what you would like to work on in therapy. Towards the end we will discuss scheduling, etc.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

To be totally honest, every therapeutic approach can be a useful frame at times, and they all also have pitfalls. With awareness of both, I bring a range of approaches to help my clients understand and overcome their problems. I am a trusted consultant who helps clients heal themselves by increasing insight and confidence.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

Generational trauma: clients who are suffering grief, or feel like a black sheep within a dysfunctional family dynamic. Life transitions: feeling confused, out of place, or lacking confidence for a desired change. Spirituality: clients who are exploring, who may be navigating interfaith dynamics. Feminist issues: women whose lives seem to be about everyone around them or who have disproportional burdens of care. The more you are willing to continue and deepen the work we talk about, the more you will get out of therapy. It is very inspiring to watch my clients grow and become more fully themselves!
