About Us

" Taking the step to start therapy can often be overwhelming and intimidating, but it is also empowering. Too often we do not put ourselves first. This is a time and a space to focus on you. I hope to be an empathetic partner on this journey with you. I believe that therapy is most successful when there is a collaborative, working relationship between therapist and client. I work with adults, both individuals and couples who are navigating lifes many complexities including relationship struggles, grief and loss, infertility/pregnancy loss, anxiety, depression, intrusive thoughts and more. ", I hope to create a nonjudgmental and safe space for you to process and better understand the issues that you might be facing. I utilize techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help you become more comfortable with uncomfortable thoughts and feelings and correct maladaptive patterns of thought and behavior. , " I encourage you to be kind to yourself. We too often do not show ourselves the same compassion that we may show a friend or even a stranger. Life can be hard, and there are times in life that are particularly painful. I hope to be your partner in supporting you through whatever it is that you might be facing. You are not alone - lets do this together. "
