My ability to effectively listen is one of my greatest strengths. I provide a safe, supportive environment for my clients.

Sharing your private thoughts and feelings can feel vulnerable. So first, I emphasize cultivating a trusting, respectful therapeutic relationship where you feel fully comfortable opening up about your inner life.

There’s no such thing as life without pain. It’s part of what makes us human. If we can learn to sit with our pain, rather than push it away, then we can let it go. A stronger, wiser version of yourself is waiting on the other side.

Many of my clients are moving through symptoms of anxiety, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder, or PTSD. Others are going through periods of adjustment and transition, or possibly grief and loss.

My desire to become a therapist grew out of my own experience of reaching out for help when I needed it most.

I'm a member of Resilience Lab — the largest community of clinicians working collaboratively to produce better outcomes and improve mental health.

My fundamental values begin with the belief that we’re all here on this spinning blue ball to help each other. Life can be pretty tough, and no one gets through it alone. We all need the help of others to thrive.
