I'm glad you're here
I know searching for a therapist, for the first or fifteenth time, can sometimes feel daunting. I truly believe just starting the search is a big step in attuning to what we need. I have experience working together with adults exploring a wide range of needs, including anxiety, life transitions, relationship issues, depression, family issues, fertility, pregnancy, postpartum, parenting, trauma, career stressors, and overall exploration of life satisfaction and fulfillment. I am also Level 1 Trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS).
Self-exploration can feel scary and difficult even when we know it may be needed. With this understanding, I approach the therapeutic relationship as one of the cornerstones of treatment. A place where trust, safety, and acceptance are established to create the growth and healing we hope to experience in life.
I approach therapy in a collaborative and client-centered manner tailoring style to the individual needs of the client. I believe one of the most important, and sometimes most difficult aspect of therapy, is working toward more fully embracing exactly where you are, starting from there, and moving forward authentically.
