About My Clients

My personal life experiences have led me to become very passionate about working with clients who are experiencing chronic health issues, anxiety, work stress and life transitions. I believe it is important to create a safe and collaborative environment for each client in order to motivate them to focus on their strengths and take life one step at a time.

My Background and Approach

I utilize an eclectic approach, combining several different methods. I believe each client is individual and there is not always a uniform approach to therapy. I work to empower clients to reach their full potential and live their life in alignment with their values.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I am very passionate about the intersection between mental and physical health. I personally have experience with chronic illness and food allergies.
