Practice Information

Wrestling with difficult thought patterns, trying to control unpleasant feelings, and being trapped in repetitive relationship challenges and dealing with self-doubt is bloody hard and takes a toll. I believe people want to change and have better relationships, but often do not know where to start, making it feel daunting and impossible—I know, I have been there (a few times). I am passionate about helping people build a more peaceful relationship within themselves and others. I am here to help you get to the root of what is going on and support you in taking actionable steps toward what matters most to you.

In our work together I will combine traditional talk therapy with practical, evidence-based tools. While we will spend time processing and understanding your past, our focus will always remain on addressing what is happening right now that is keeping you stuck. My ultimate goal is for you to become your own therapist, fully connected to your inner wisdom.

We all carry pain stemming from difficult experiences or parts of ourselves that bring up immense shame. My priority is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you can explore these parts, learn to offer them deep compassion and acceptance, and finally move forward.
