About My Clients

I am incredibly drawn to the therapeutic world as it can be one of immense depth. My therapeutic approach seeks to uncover what lies beneath the surface and allows you to discover what is really going on. Throughout our therapeutic journey, I hope you uncover the unique ways in which you create your own human experience. Let's weave your breakthroughs into your storyline! My current practice now offers individual therapy to adults (ages 25-80+).

My Background and Approach

I have a particular interest in serving individuals experiencing or seeking to explore the following: ~ Stress Management ~ Burnout ~ Life Transitions ~ Grief and Loss ~ Spirituality ~ Holistic Wellness

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

When life becomes overwhelming, I like to envision our psychological responses as if we are driving a car. Sometimes we stare into the rearview mirror revisiting what is now behind us. Other times, we floor the gas pedal hoping to escape from what we may not wish to face. It can be incredibly difficult to make the decision to pull over and assess where it is we are actually going. My goal is to support you on your journey — regardless of your final destination. Therapy can be a quick pit stop for fuel, a regularly scheduled tune-up, or a place for complete restoration. Through use of tangible and everyday examples, I hope to reinforce your innate capabilities by providing you with tools and resources to overcome the next roadblock. My therapeutic approach is strengths-based, collaborative, and solution-focused. In utilizing a proactive and client-centered method, I allow you to be the one in the driver’s seat. After all, you are the expert of your own life experience!
