About

I practice a person-centered, relationship-based, and collaborative approach to counseling. I believe at heart, counseling is a catalyst to create change in our lives. As a therapist, my role is to provide feedback, witness, offer support, and provide resources as a client explores their barriers to creating the desired change they are reaching for. I draw from both traditional psychotherapeutic and body-mind evidenced-based techniques. I provide feedback, resources, support, and tools, while my clients explore their edges and barriers to create the life they desire. I believe we create our universe and at heart we perpetually seek a sense of wholeness and belonging. I believe there is always hope. I work with adults, 18+ and offer individual, couples, family, and group counseling services.
