Welcome! Finding a therapist who is right for you can be daunting, please let me share an overview of my approach to help you in your search. I work with individuals and couples navigating a variety of life situations. Many of my clients seek support for anxiety, depression, trauma, relationships, cultural adjustment, and LGBTQIA+ or gender-diversity matters.
My goal as a therapist is to create a welcoming space where you can be yourself. I embrace your strengths, insights, emotions, sense of humor, and creativity. I believe in your ability to heal and grow.
