My goal is to provide a safe, authentic, and collaborative space for you to better understand yourself and your goals, determine what is working for you and what may not be, and for you to feel emboldened to approach life in new and meaningful ways!

My approach is science-based, compassionate, and collaborative. I want to understand you as a whole person, including what you're struggling with, what you enjoy, and what matters most to you.
Get to know your presenting issues, where they come from, how they serve (and don't really serve) you, and find a path forward. We will also understand your feelings and how you can cope with them in the moment.

I am actively committed to helping clients learn more about themselves. I don’t just sit and listen. I talk and ask thought-provoking questions. I offer new perspectives while also offering time to reflect together.
Break through that feeling of being stuck. If you've been tirelessly analyzing your issues without seeing progress, we'll uncover pathways to move forward, ensuring you experience tangible and meaningful progress.
