I combine several approaches that help you understand patterns and themes that might be holding you back, and learn new skills to feel better. I'm not a "sit and nod" therapist; I share my perceptions and ideas with you, and sessions are active.
We will uncover knowledge & skills you have acquired from your lived experience (strengths) & apply them in achieving your goals. My approach is a mix of narrative therapy, mindfulness, somatic practices, polyvagal theory-based therapy, etc.

Create real goals that address the underlying issues and difficulties that may be making your everyday life harder. My hope is that you begin to feel as though you are a better version of yourself! We can also dive deeper into issues via testing.

I believe that the therapeutic relationship is the most important factor to change and I strive to give all my clients a safe and judgment-free session. I listen and help you find your voice. It's there-even if you haven't heard it recently.
explore your past, examine your habits, look for opportunities to make your life better, and find hope and healing no matter how things are today. Together we can make your life better!
