My clients tell me working with me feels safe and affirming, but they also know I will give them some hard truths when needed.

I see the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for all of the work I do with clients. A client's emotional safety is of utmost importance to me. In my (virtual) office, boundaries are respected and embraced.

We will talk about what will assist us in meeting your goals first and foremost. Other than that, I find the topics of relationships, communication, coping skills, spirituality, and self care come up frequently in my work with clients.

I have worked in substance use and mental health treatment for over 5 years and specialize in helping people replace harmful coping with more healthy ways of coping. Recovery is all about making tiny steps towards bigger goals!

I wanted to come alongside people and walk with them through their hard times. I can't make all of the hard stuff go away, but you won't be alone.

I offer Telehealth therapy from a room in my home, which also has a 5-year-old chocolate lab in it, so you may hear some barking in the background from time to time!
