Introduction

My unique combination of master’s degrees supports my skillset of critical thinking, problem-solving, empathy, and emotional intelligence. My style can be best described as being supportive, directive, playful, and challenging. I value your time, energy, and money and so I cater our sessions to be most productive, efficient, & supportive for you. I have a fresh perspective on therapy, life experiences, and conceptualizations of clients. I stay well-informed on research and successful therapeutic processes so I can best support you. I operate within a trauma-informed psychodynamic & systemic therapy lens, drawing upon cognitive behavioral techniques when needed. Recognizing challenges fuels growth and uncovering their roots elevates control! I’ll help you expand your level of self-awareness, enrich your relationships, and increase your personal growth. There is nothing off the table for us to talk about. Let's have a candid conversation where you feel supported, empowered, and safe.
