About

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate back toward emotional wellness. My work focuses on helping clients make the internal shifts necessary to feel more connection and joy in their lives. Maybe you are looking to heal from trauma, free yourself from depression, quiet the anxious voice in your head or address addiction patterns that keep you stuck. All it might take is one good insight, one connection to create change in the way you view your life and care for yourself. You can expect therapy to be a collaborative and individualized process to help you reach your goals. My approach to clinical practice combines traditional talk therapies with embodied approaches. During sessions we will address faulty thought processes and learned patterns of unhelpful behavior, as well as access and use information from your body and nervous system to increase your self-awareness. "Knowing oneself comes from attending with compassionate curiosity to what is happening within." - Gabor Maté To begin your journey toward the life you deserve, schedule an appointment today.
