About My Clients

I’ve had the privilege working with youth launching into early adulthood, individuals navigating life transitions across the developmental spectrum, professionals finding their way into respective leadership and executive roles, and individuals forging forward post-retirement. Regardless of where you're at in your life and the specific issues you seek to work on, we will explore the barriers that are getting in the way of achieving your deeply meaningful and personal life goals.

My Background and Approach

I draw from a variety of therapy modalities, specifically focusing on a client's unique self and history in order to tailor interventions. Each session involves a gentle, but direct, inquiry as to what is getting you closer to your desired goals, what is hindering progress, and how to develop a plan to ensure you proceed in the valued direction you are seeking. At times, we may also need to explore how longstanding narratives and patterns evolved over time and find ways to refocus and center on the present.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe in each individual's inherent strengths and capacity to lead, regardless of assigned or assumed roles and responsibilities. Every client is deserving of acceptance, health, compassion, and relief from suffering. Some will proceed in therapy at a fast pace while others will need to take a bit of time. I patiently gauge what is the best approach and cadence of work for each individual. It doesn’t matter how long it takes to achieve treatment goals….what matters is that steps are being taken to get closer and closer session by session.
