We all have that moment when we know we need help. Although these moments are painful, they offer you raw insight and openness to growth. They are an opportunity to pause and reflect on what you need and what is not helping you. Therapy is a safe place for you to explore what’s going on and what it looks like to move forward. Whether it is with me or another therapist, I encourage you to take advantage of this moment in your life.
My Approach
My approach is informal and warm. You are unique and I want to invest energy in understanding your world from your eyes. I create a safe space where you can sense the freedom to be yourself as well as an awareness that I will be transparent with you. It a privilege to be invited into your experience. I approach my work from a Psychodynamic perspective which explores intra-psychic processes and their interplay with interpersonal relationships. I also integrate techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to bring practical steps to transition your insights to action.
My Services
Couples Therapy
I am passionate about working with couples at all stages of their relationship. I help couples assess their needs and begin to focus their efforts. I assist individuals in understanding their experience and learning to share with their partner. I aim for my couples to develop a stronger bond and acquire the tools to sustain it.
Anxiety | Depression
I work with with individuals of all ages who are feeling stunted by fear or sadness. I take time with individuals to explore why this experience is dominating. Together, we create a plan to learn from the emotion and get you back in the driver’s seat. I bring knowledge and compassion to help you grow.
EMDR
I utilize EMDR to help individuals use their brain’s natural capacity to move past their negative experiences. This therapy helps separate past traumatic events from the present which unlocks positive resources that were previously blocked. I offer EMDR to treat a variety of presenting concernsfor adults, teens and children.
About Me
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and my journey with therapy started when the quality of my life improved after my own therapy experience (yes, therapists go to therapy too!). This prompted the start of my study of clinical psychology over a decade ago.
In the past decade, I have had 8 years of working with clients. I have been trained to help clients bring the hidden, automatic patterns in the background into consciousness to empower positive change. I have also been equipped with the ability to provide concrete feedback that sparks deep reflection and helps individuals choose their most authentic steps forward. Having the privilege of diverse work experiences, combined with advanced clinical education, I bring a deep knowledge base and openness to the clients I care for. I have been trained in Psychodynamic Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, and the Gottman Method.

The best way to find a therapist that fits is to schedule a consultation. This gives you interaction with the therapist’s personality outside of the therapist’s credentials which is also an important part of picking the right provider. A consultation will also allow you to ask the questions that are most important to you. There is no charge or pressure to schedule.
