Do you find yourself often thinking, I know what I need to do, I just have a hard time doing it? I hope I can help you understand that and consider what you want, why you want it, and how best to approach it. My practice is a warm, safe space to help you bring your deepest wants and worries to the surface in order to live the life you have wanted. I aim to walk through the therapeutic process with you, by your side - through old wounds and/or difficult current dilemmas - in order to experience positive change.
I am a Clinical Health Psychologist that will approach you and your struggles holistically. A lot of factors impact our situation - current and past life experiences, biology and genetics, environment, social situation, and more. I consider all of this in understanding where you are and where you want to be.
You are unique, and the approach we take in your treatment should be as well. As opposed to the traditional model of psychotherapy, I use a person-centered, relational approach - your treatment will be tailored to you. If you have any questions about me, my practice, or my approach, please reach out.
