About My Clients

You just feel stuck , like you’re walking through life in a heavy fog. Perhaps your professional life is soaring - but the personal stuff ? Not so much. Maybe everything looks great ‘on paper’ ( or your social media ) but you feel like a fraud , an imposter , constantly fighting with that unrelenting inner critic. It’s exhausting ! You deal with anxiety or unresolved trauma and it’s time to finally get control of your life. It is time to live the best version of you.

My Background and Approach

I bring my authentic self to the therapeutic relationship in an approachable, accessible and creative way. I view the therapeutic relationship as a partnership. You are the expert on you. I think of my role as a witness and a guide to work alongside you and help you figure shit out so you can rediscover your personal power and manifest that inner badass. My style is straightforward, humorous, encouraging, curious, and genuine. You are invited to bring whatever is present for you and arrive just as you are — no judgment here! My approach to therapy is client-centered and supportive. Psychodynamic, humanisticexistential and positive psychology theories inform my multi-modal approach. This might mean integrating other techniques/approaches such as art therapy, mindfulness practice, guided visualization, meditation and movement in the service of addressing your unique goals. This combination of methods helps me target your specific problems on multiple levels to achieve enduring change
