My Approach
I am a compassionate and open-minded therapist, bringing a friendly, easy-going, down-to-earth style that leaves room for both serious discussion and humor. Believing that the client-therapist relationship is a critical component for healing, growth, and change to take place, I strive to create a non-judgmental and supportive environment where clients feel safe and comfortable.
​
My areas of focus include anxiety, sexual abuse and other traumas, body image and disordered eating, relationship issues, and general life adjustments. I often use non-traditional approaches of mindfulness and meditation, yoga, and art and writing in the therapeutic process.
I would be honored to walk alongside you in exploring life's challenges, identifying what's truly important to you, and creating goals that may lead you to a more fulfilling life. My hope is for you to achieve balance, to be at peace with yourself and your current situation, and to simply BE you.
