I like to support my patients where they are at presently, but also help prepare them for forward momentum. At times I may stir the pot and "call folks" out as necessary, while also validating their experiences for what they are worth.
Together we will understand what you want and what may feel like is holding you back. We will then develop a practical plan to learn new tools and practice new behaviors that can help you get unstuck and on a path to living the life you want.

I'm trained in several approaches that can create new insights about your emotions. Our well-being is best achieved by addressing the whole person. My holistic approach respects the individuality of people their environment, and their physical needs.
Start with the intake phase, which I learn more about you and what you hope for, as well as gather historical/familial history. Then, we talk more about your goals in-depth and I offer ideas about treatment. Then we get started on your therapy path!
