Get To Know Me
What would be important for someone to know about working with you?
Finding the right therapist matters. You want someone who looks beyond the labels and symptoms and sees you as a whole person with your own unique thoughts and history. Maybe you're navigating a life transition that's left you feeling off balance — a career shift, a relationship change, or a profound loss. Maybe anxiety or depression has been running the show for a while and you're ready to stop just getting through the day. Or maybe something just feels off, even if you can't quite name it yet.
I bring over three decades of experience supporting people as they grow, adapt, and flourish at every stage of life. This background gives me a deep respect for the fact that growth isn't linear — each person's path looks different. I'll meet you where you are and help you develop self-compassion and effective skills for meaningful change.
Our work together will be collaborative. I'll ask thoughtful questions, challenge you when it's useful, and help you see things that are hard to see on your own. I also bring particular depth to couple and family dynamics. While we'll honor the depth of your experiences, don't be surprised if joy and laughter find their way into our sessions.
