I'm so glad you're here.
Who do I work with?
I love working with a variety of people and issues, particularly people trying to sort out life transitions. I like helping:
-loved ones who are navigating grief related to loss,
-young adults explore their future or manage the stress of life changes,
-post-partum women struggling with the challenges of parenting
-men and women going through breakups or wanting to improve communication within their relationships.
I work well with women who need help identifying and asserting their needs and men who need help expressing their feelings.
I am an LGBTQ+ ally. My goal is to help you feel comfortable, validated, and empowered. I'll try to ask good questions that help you gain a new perspective of your challenges. My focus is on helping you find real relief and effective coping skills.
I know that finding the right therapist can be intimidating (and exhausting) so I offer a free 15-minute consultation phone call where we can decide if we're a match. If you have specific questions or concerns that I can answer before you have to sign the intake paperwork and charge your insurance it's more efficient for both of us.
