Together, we'll make sense of what you’re experiencing and explore new ways of relating to yourself and others. We’ll also look at what's happening, identify what might be getting in the way, come up with possible solutions, and try things out. If something doesn’t work, we’ll learn from it together and try something different.

Therapy with me is warm, curious, collaborative, and compassionate. I place a lot of emphasis on building trust because I want clients to feel comfortable being honest with me. As that relationship develops, I'm more willing to challenge them and be direct when I think it could be helpful—but I want that challenge to come from a place of care and respect.
