"Mental health problems don't define who you are. They are something you experience. You walk in the rain and you feel the rain, but, importantly, you are not the rain." - Matt Haig.

​

As a clinician, I aim to promote the overall well being of my clients by establishing a therapeutic environment that is free from judgment. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in addition to other mindfulness practices. I also incorporate other approaches and techniques to tailor the therapeutic experience to the individual needs of those I work with.

​

I enjoy working with a diverse range of clients in areas such as depression, anxiety, and adjustment issues. I also have experience and interest in working with partners of sex addicts who are experiencing betrayal trauma.

​

You are the expert of your own experience. I aim to help you feel safe and empowered as you develop insight and skills to help you move forward confidently. I would be privileged to partner with you on your healing journey.
