The human experience is both difficult and wondrous.

  • I am here to help you find a way forward through the difficult so that you might fully enjoy the wondrous.
  • My approach is non-judgemental, non-dogmatic, and is about finding the therapy that works best for you.

Helping clients to make sense of past experiences and the way these experiences impact the present through coping patterns, and how difficult emotions are processed is something that I am passionate about.

  • I have helped clients struggling with anxiety, depression, perfectionism, adjustment issues, interpersonal and relationship challenges, traumatic events, as well as grief and loss.

Working with clients, helping them to develop self-compassion, acquire flexibility in their approach to life, and learn robust coping skills is a deeply satisfying part of my work.

I enjoy working with teens, adults, couples, and families.
