Therapy is a method of self-care. An opportunity to work through a difficult or challenging time in one’s life by gaining insight, learning tools for understanding & managing one’s reactions and emotions and problem-solving in a way that doesn’t negatively affect our ability to function. My goal is to foster & cultivate an environment for that process to manifest. I seek to achieve that via the use of Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy & Strength-Based Therapy.

My Professional Background

I have 25 years of experience working with a variety of populations, from children to older adults. I’ve been privileged to help people navigate through various life situations including conflicts in relationships, depression, anxiety, stress, grief and chronic illness.
