Painful feeling such as anxiety or sadness and/or the disconnect from loved ones can feel overwhelming. It is difficult to find joy in life when we are struggling with one of these challenges.

Therapy can look different to each person, it can look different each day. Together we co-create what therapy looks like. Early in my life, I was under the belief that there was a "norm" or a "right" way of doing something. However, as I grew I found this limiting to the human experience. I invite the complex individual into my therapy. By accepting ourselves and others as complex individuals we can hold a greater capacity for compassion to ourselves and others....

Together we will explore and discover what unfolds moment-to-moment to gain new understanding and begin healing and moving toward wholeness. I am deeply honored to witness your jo...
