My primary goal is to become useless to you as quickly as possible. That's not a typo; I want to help you make positive changes so that you no longer need to come see me. Whether you're struggling with your relationship, feelings of depression, anxiety, a traumatic event, addiction, or a complex combination of issues, I can help you make sense of the chaos. As every person and problem is unique, I am flexible in my approach, tailoring sessions to meet your specific needs.
For couples: I'm well versed in matters of infidelity, sexual issues, communication breakdowns, feelings of disconnection, and confusion over whether or not to stay together. For LGBT+ clients, I understand the additional complexities that affect your world. I also have a lot of experience working with addictions and trauma.
It has been my experience that people often feel misunderstood, unseen, and unheard. I invite you to come in for a free consultation to see if I'm a good fit for you. If you're reading this, congratulate yourself on being proactive and taking a difficult first step.

Groups
Support Group/ Psychology Book Club
This group is led by an experienced therapist and meets on a monthly basis to discuss various mental health issues. Each month there will be an assigned book dealing with issues such as depression, anxiety, self-compassion, values, Buddhist approach to mental well-being, shame, authenticity, and more. Group members are invited to share their experiences (past or present) in a safe, validating environment. The books are used as a bridge and a way of finding common language to discuss problems. No contracts/obligations. (**Active group members are also able to optionally obtain individual counseling for up to 50% off)
