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!
We will discuss the areas of your life that are causing you distress to find the source of the problem, and create actionable steps to make lasting change in your life. My goal for each client is to help them live their best life, happy and healthy.

In session, free association is encouraged: where you speak with as little self-censorship as possible. Amidst the specific goals you want to work on, I encourage you to share dreams and to develop a curiosity about your own unconscious.

In sessions, we will examine how your symptoms may be connected to the past, including any previous traumas and your role in your family of origin. I won't give you the answer, but I will highlight the underlying core of surface issues.
We will work toward helping you find deeper levels of calm, contentment, confidence, and happiness in your life. Therapy results should not be a mystery; you should experience measurable, noticeable, and meaningful results from our work together.
