About My Clients

The most important elements of any successful relationship with a therapist are to feel safe, seen, and understood. It is important that you find a therapist that you feel understands you. I take pride in my compassion and unconditional positive regard for all of my clients. Whether you're navigating trauma, shame, addiction, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles - I got your back!

My Background and Approach

I use an eclectic approach, drawing from Solution-Focused Therapy, CBT, Trauma Focused CBT, Narrative Therapy and Psychodynamic Therapy, I collaboratively explore your history and draw insights from previous experiences and current symptoms and behaviors. We then identify strengths and solutions that are helpful for you and create a custom toolbox for you to navigate your challenges.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

My biggest 'failures' in life have helped shaped my perspective and have been turned into launching pads for some of the biggest successes I have had. Everyone's story is unique, but there is always hope and always . It doesn't matter what it is, your story is still being written and we will find a way to turn the page onto a more hopeful chapter :)
