About My Clients

My clients may be trying therapy for the first time or are looking for a new approach. If you’re tired of feeling unhappy or stuck and are looking to feel respected, understood, and supported, while simultaneously gently challenged to leave your comfort zone, please reach out. I'm happy to help.

My Background and Approach

I am holistically inclined focusing on all variables that impact the individual to gain a more thorough understanding of all that you're dealing with. I utilize an honest and calm approach with a focus on boundary setting and communication, acceptance vs resistance, self-care and coping skills, challenging unhealthy thought patterns, and working on goals to effect change. My hope is to foster confidence in navigating life independent of therapy and progress from weekly sessions to occasional check-ins. I work at the client’s pace, but will push if necessary and ethically appropriate.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Everyone is unique and I value understanding the world from the client’s perspective. I don’t take anything personally and allow the client to express themselves as they are by creating a safe, accepting space. I respect that the client is the expert on themselves, and convey that they only have control over themselves. While we would love to change everyone around us, I want clients to learn how to best react and set realistic expectations to reduce disappointments.
