‘Be Seen. Be Heard. Be Understood. It’s important to me in our therapeutic work together that YOU feel seen, validated, and supported as you take your first steps toward your emotional wellness. I strive to provide a safe, non judgmental environment for you to rest, release, and be truly understood.Therapy is your time and space to unlock the healing potential within you. Our lives are made vibrant through our relationships and connections with others. In times of stress, depression, anxiety/fear, relationships can become strained. A person’s self-esteem may suffer and daily life becomes difficult and overwhelming. Therapy can provide you with a healing relationship to empower your growth. It provides a space to learn, change, and gain new perspectives on yourself, your difficulties and your relationships. We will collaborate to create a safe environment where powerful change can happen. My goal is to help you gain new insight to find your own solutions by asking questions, compassionately challenging perceptions and providing guidance. I am a firm believer that every person has the insight and strength needed for healing. My passion lies in walking alongside you in that journey. It’s about empowering you to create the life you want in your relationships with the significant people in your life and internally. I use an eclectic mix of therapeutic approaches (DBT, CBT, Family Systems, Attachment, Narrative, Solutions Focused to name a few). I describe my therapeutic style as warm, empathic, compassionate and direct. I will challenge you, but only as quickly and intensely as feels right for you, on that day and in that moment. You are in the drivers seat when we’re working together. I am by your side to help guide you through whatever may be blocking your untapped strengths. I provide individual, couple and family therapy for adolescents and adults, all are welcome. You can expect to be seen, heard, understood and challenged. Areas of special interest include life transitions, for both men and women, individuals and couples working through intimacy issues, dealing with infidelities, separation, communication difficulties, blended families, depression, anxiety, stress, loss and grieving. "Only when we're brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light." - Brene Brown.”
