Digging around in your hard stuff can be painful and exhausting. Thankfully, when you’re doing it in the context of therapy, you’ll have me by your side, witnessing the work and the pain and the joy and the growth. I’ll hold a mirror up for you to see where you’re at and help you plan where you want to go, and I’m honored to do so. Reach out. Let’s get scheduled and get to work.

Treatment Approach
- Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) Builds skills in self-kindness and compassion toward others. It is especially helpful for people who struggle with shame or self-criticism.
- Eclectic Therapy Draws from different therapeutic methods based on what fits each client best. It is flexible and personalized rather than following one single model.
- Family Systems Therapy Looks at problems within the context of the family as a whole. It aims to improve communication and balance in family relationships.
- Multicultural Therapy Acknowledges the role of culture, race, and identity in mental health. It values diversity and adapts treatment to each person’s background.
- Narrative Therapy Encourages people to view problems as separate from themselves and reframe their life story. It helps build resilience and self-identity.
- Person-Centered Therapy (Rogerian) Emphasizes empathy, unconditional positive regard, and authenticity. It provides a safe space for self-discovery and growth.
Approach Description: I believe you are the expert on yourself. I view my job as that of witness to the work you are doing and as I said in another section, as a mirror to what I'm seeing. As a neutral third party I can often help you view the places that aren't working in different ways, which can help you to engage differently. I value authenticity, warmth, and laughter.

New Year, New You…? Did reading that make you want to throw up a little bit? Maybe you’re conflicted, feeling as though you do want to see change in your life but you want it to feel deeper and bigger than the millions of temporary diets or workout plans you’re being sold. What if this year your change was to come to accept yourself, fully and wholly? Does that even sound possible? Maybe acceptance isn’t even your goal: maybe your goal is the ability to be present, without nagging anxieties and crippling depression. Either way, therapy can help.
I work with people who are sick of their same old stuff. You can recognize your patterns, you know the feeling of ‘this isn’t working’ and you’re done with it. You’re ready to face hard past truths, look at what current stories you might be believing about yourself or others, and find where the tension is living so you can address it and enjoy life again.
