Reaching out for therapy can feel overwhelming. I understand. Yes, it is a leap of faith. If you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, in pain or numb or would proactively like to address specific concerns. If you are considering therapy for a one time consult, a few visits to address a recent crisis or would like to engage in ongoing therapy, I hope we can work together safely and productively to meet your therapy needs and goals. I collaborate and consult actively with other clinicians for care coordination, medication management or behavioral care as needed.

I have worked with different individuals presenting with a wide variety of mental health concerns. As I reflect over twenty years of clinical practice, I realize how deeply I have come to respect each individuals' capacity to overcome pain and meet challenges, utilizing therapy to meet needs for self preservation, growth and re-invention.
I offer a safe, caring, warm therapeutic relationship. I honor each persons' narrative & meet them where they are in their journey, gently challenge underlying beliefs and patterns, help develop insight to create desired changes in life. My therapeutic work is informed by multiple perspectives: Psychodynamic, Culturally sensitive, Trauma-informed.
