Welcome, I am currently accepting new clients! Together we will create and environment that is compassionate, supportive and built on a foundation of trust. My therapeutic approach is highly relational, direct, and collaborative with the utilization of multiple therapeutic modalities. My work with adults is centered on understanding and accepting how the past has contributed to and influenced who we are today. Together I help clients navigate through the intricacies of life, overcome barriers, heal from the past, and build a life that feels authentic, empowering, and fulfilling.
