About Us

" There is extraordinary power in sharing your pain with another person. Feeling and being deeply understood eases the intensity of emotion, creating space to see ourselves and our struggles with compassion rather than judgement. From this new perspective of gentle, accepting self observation, solutions come to us. I am a therapist who is skillful at facilitating this powerful mindset shift. My natural ability to tune into my clients needs and understand their unique experiences allows me to offer insights that transform pain and frustration into self love and problem resolution. ", I specialize in working with clients who struggle with substance abuse and compulsive behavior such as binge eating and self sabotaging at work or in relationships. In our work together, we will take a deeper dive into the root of those behaviors. Building a positive sense of identity combats the shame and meaningless that can underlie self destruction. , It is a privilege to be trusted with people’s innermost thoughts and feelings; as such, I approach therapeutic relationships from a place of genuine care. If you related to the specialties I mentioned, or simply want a fresh perspective from a thoughtful and empathetic listener, I encourage you to reach out. I am currently welcoming new clients.
