Welcome to your therapy journey! I work with clients from all walks of life, and strive to create a safe environment for you to share your experience.

Therapy is a lifelong journey filled with ebbs and flows. Our work together may be brief or longstanding. No matter the length of time, my goal is to help you create a plan to live a values-based life amidst everyday challenges. I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental environment that encourages vulnerability. Therapy is an individualized and tailored approach that allows people to walk their journey at different paces. I recognize that you are the expert in your experience and encourage you to choose the path that is right for you.
