I am a strong believer that with the aid of a trusting, warm, skillful, and open-minded therapist, people can bring about real, positive changes to their lives. I work with my clients in an empathetic and open dialogue to not only find the root causes of current behaviors and thinking patterns, but also to help change them. I do so understanding th
I sincerely believe that each of us is born into this world deserving of happiness, safety, and love. For some of us, the road to emotional wellness can be impacted by forces and experiences beyond our control.

My passion is to help you feel heard, understood, and hopeful about the possibility of change. Some of the clients I work with are looking for support through a difficult time, or a place to sort through confusion. Others are wanting help with new ways of thinking, feeling, and being. And still others are working to resolve past trauma. I try har
Shame, feeling different, experiencing depression or anxiety, and facing relationship issues or conflicts with oneself and/or the world are some of the issues I commonly provide help with.
I believe that deep psychological and emotional change is achievable through Jungian-informed depth psychotherapy and dreamwork (which is always optional). Th
I believe that relational wounds heal relationally. As human beings, we are meant to live, grow, and heal in connection with others, and when that connection is broken or unsafe, it leaves a lasting impact.
