Therapy should be a space for connection, warmth, and meaningful exploration. My goal is to help you feel whole, purposeful, and empowered. I take a lighthearted, relatable approach that fosters trust and openness, ensuring each session feels engaging and supportive. Rather than adhering to a singular therapeutic approach, I tailor my methods to your needs, combining my expertise with your feedback to custom-design a therapy experience just for you. Psychological symptoms and challenges are unique to each person, and I am deeply attuned to what is happening for you and between us from moment to moment in our sessions and am focused on you having new and generative experiences, not just developing new understandings. My priority is to help you have transformative and generative moments—not just gain new understandings, but truly embody meaningful change.
I am a lifelong learner, always expanding my understanding—whether through completing my doctoral studies, gaining innovative skills in the mental health field, or gleaning wisdom from the rich life experiences of others. Every journey offers lessons in compassion and deeper connection. I love my family, community, and spending time in nature, which helps me stay grounded and present.
My Approach
I work with individuals, couples, and families to address challenges while also exploring identity, life transitions, and relationships. Therapy is not just about healing—it’s about unlocking potential, deepening self-awareness, and cultivating fulfillment.
