Therapist Profile

My Approach to Helping

Have you been feeling more stressed or anxious lately? Are you worried about your teenager? Have you been feeling depressed or less interested in things you once enjoyed? Do you want to develop better connections with people? Therapy may be the first step in your journey of growth and healing. I approach therapy from a client-centered, relational perspective that draws on your strengths and experience. I believe that people who come to therapy have internal resources that can help them grow and change. My approach focuses on helping you foster growth and healing through support, reflection, guidance and building on your existing resources. I have been described by my clients as warm, easy to connect with, and down to earth. My goal in this work is to help you overcome adversity, to recognize inner beauty and strength, to build meaningful relationships, and to live your fullest and most rewarding life.
