Just about everyone will experience difficulty at some point in their lives, whether that means grief, relationship conflict, mental health concerns, struggles with identity and purpose, or the question of worthiness and success. It can be difficult to know how to maneuver through the challenges that life can throw our way, and at times it's hard to know where to turn. My goal is to help create an opportunity to explore the workings of your mind, and to help guide you to self-discovery, knowledge, and peace.
As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I primarily work with individuals and couples, and families. I welcome families of all kinds: traditional and non-traditional. I approach therapy as a collaborator, not an expert. I find the most joy in learning about you directly from you.
I work primarily from a post-modern approach; examining the influence of family, history, gender, religion, race, etc...on a person's life. Each person's story is beautifully unique and worthy. I love being a partner in your healing journey of self-discovery.
