I am a psychotherapist with a passion for supporting people through difficult transitions in their lives. This can come in a variety of forms whether it be adjusting to a new job, becoming a first-time parent, being diagnosed with a serious illness, as well as a range of other things. My goal is to help you gain a better understanding of your feelings, mood, and behaviors throughout these transitions, and in turn, help you to better manage and cope. Therapy can also be a place to explore strategies for regaining control and moving forward.

I frequently work with those facing challenges in their relationships, struggling with anxiety, depression, or emotional regulation, and seeking a deeper understanding of themselves. They need a compassionate and supportive environment to explore their thoughts and feelings, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and build stronger, more fulfilling connections with others. Their goals include achieving greater self-awareness, emotional stability, and personal growth. Through therapy, they aim to overcome their current struggles and unlock their full potential.

My ideal client needs help with the services I specialize in. I typically consider the client's current habits and strengths to guide us on where to start goal setting. Showing up to therapy is a huge step, and I commend any client who takes that initiative.

I work with adult and older adolescent clients who are struggling to find life beyond their diagnosis. Whether a mood disorder, a chronic or acute medical condition, or difficulty establishing a healthy lifestyle, I work with my clients to develop not only coping skills but also help them find vitality in their lives. Difficulties in life are a given; extreme suffering is not.

Grief leaves you feeling hopeless and alone. Life as you know it has ended and everyone wants you to “get over it”. You don’t even recognize the person you have become. Following a loss, everything feels different. You don’t feel like you can relate to friends and the world around you as you did before.
