About My Clients

Are you looking to improve your relationships, manage anxiety and/or stress, set boundaries, create a better work/life balance, or adjust to a recent life transition? Therapy can be a wonderful place for you to discover more about yourself, your relationships, your goals, your wishes, and your dreams. This exploration can lead to a greater sense of self-awareness and personal growth. I look forward to assisting you with this journey.

My Background and Approach

Therapy can be a place for self-exploration and a greater depth of understanding, an avenue to enhance social connections, and a way to set goals and chart a path to achieve them. I work with clients to address any obstacles they may be facing and in helping them to enact a plan to achieve their desired outcomes. This partnership is different from person to person, because it’s about identifying any stumbling blocks clients may be facing and working through them. I value approaching people from a place of curiosity and empathetic understanding. I use a collaborative, solution-focused approach to create a warm and open atmosphere, where clients feel comfortable sharing their stories and lived experiences. I would love to work with you to create an effective plan of action, connect with others in a meaningful way, and achieve your goals. I am also a certified Prepare Enrich facilitator and have completed Level 1 and 2 Training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy.
