About

Life can be hard and at some point in our lives, we may feel stuck with certain challenges. Getting support from someone on the outside can sometimes help you understand more clearly what is going on. We can uncover the obstacles that are holding you back and explore how you can find more peace in your life. I work with people on a wide array of issues that include difficult relationships, depression, anxiety, life transitions, parenting, grief, and loss. I also do a lot of couples work so I can also assist with relationship issues with intimate partners. My style is warm and engaged. I like to incorporate a variety of modalities which include Cognitive Behavioral, Dialectical Behavior, Existential, and Client Centered. Every client is different and has different needs so I like to tailor my approach to what works the best for you and your personality. Some clients may prefer a direct approach where I challenge faulty beliefs, others may prefer a supportive person where they can just feel heard and not go through something alone. Whatever your needs, I can be there so that your not going through it on your own. Life can feel messy, overwhelming, complicated, and scary. Please reach out if you need some help, it doesn’t matter how little or big. I would be honored to hear your story.
