As a therapist my commitment is to show up as my whole, real self with clients, and I invite you to do the same.

My natural state is to see the strengths in people and I can be a holder of hope while you discover yours. Self-esteem gained through healthy boundaries and self- acceptance is a cornerstone of living life with choice.

My presence as a therapist can be described as curious, intuitive, interactive, and collaborative. At times I will bring humor, at times challenging insights and feedback. And while I am a FOMO anarchist, challenging us all to slow down, I show up with humility and respect for each individual’s pace, process, and needs. The therapeutic process can range in length and focus, from present-forward attention on gaining tools in a shorter time frame, to deeper excavation. Understanding connections between what has happened in the past and the impact on the present can take longer, but has the greatest potential for thorough healing and permanent change.

I respect my clients as the experts and authors of their own story. You will know what works best for you.
