What's My Approach to Therapy?
I'm a licensed professional counselor experienced in working with adults of all ages and walks of life who are facing life transitions, struggling with self-esteem, feeling stuck and “going nowhere,†or coping with past trauma. Therapy with me is collaborative, centering you as the expert in your own life. My role may vary — compassionate witness, advocate, or a perspective shift. You’ll be able to tell your story without self-censorship, interact with difficult parts of yourself as helpful messengers rather than enemies, and experience a brave space for designing lasting change.
My Practice & Services
I offer free 15 minute phone consultations where you can freely share your needs and ask important questions to help you determine if I might be a good fit for you.
My Role as a Therapist
Trust is the linchpin of any relationship, including one with your therapist. My role is to create a nonjudgmental space and build a relationship where you can feel safe being vulnerable and sharing your story.
My Therapy Focus
Change can be very difficult. I'll help you identify the barriers that have kept you from progressing to where you'd like to be and what you want to achieve. Together, we can explore how those barriers have been serving you and why it's been a struggle to let them go.
