About My Clients

My clients are looking for the support of traditional therapy, but want realism and humor mixed in. Quite often catharsis and healing can come from exploring challenging topics in a lighthearted manner, while also preserving space for sitting with more serious feelings. My clients appreciate being able to go between the two, while exploring why they think and feel the way they do and identifying different patterns they wish to explore.

My Background and Approach

There are many strategies to support growth. My 20 years of experience allows me to draw from a wide range of tools to support clients as they discuss varying topics. I specialize in helping clients explore and discover new ways to think about and respond to the challenging areas of their lives. Whether this be through exploring the influence of thoughts and beliefs on behavior (CBT) or through unlearning ways of responding or coping taught to us at an early age - I employ a variety of tools and homework assignments to support my client's growth.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe we are fundamentally shaped by the environment we were raised in, the good and the bad. From there however, we all have ongoing challenges that sometimes we just need to vent about or have some general guidance from a neutral party. I believe the beauty of therapy is the ability to float between these places while offering realistic and empathic supports.
