I believe in the body’s natural ability to heal itself, and that my role as a therapist is to facilitate this healing process through a therapeutic relationship built on trust and mutual respect.

With my experience in direct practice across various facilities, I am dedicated to guiding you through the challenges of life’s transitions. My areas of expertise include grief and loss, adjustment disorders, trauma, anxiety, depression, financial-social work, and substance use disorders. In addition, my therapeutic approach is eclectic and includes brainspotting, emotional freedom technique, cognitive behavioral therapy, nature-informed therapy, solution-focused therapy, person-centered therapy, and motivational interviewing.
