People start to heal the moment they feel heard. – Cheryl Richardson

Are you experiencing emotions that are confusing or heavy, feeling overwhelmed, or simply wanting a space to focus on yourself? You deserve to feel heard and understood. Many of the people I work with are looking for support in making sense of their experiences and getting to know themselves more deeply. My own life experiences have led to a focus on women’s issues, including perinatal wellness and the challenges of motherhood. However, I also work with clients who struggle with a variety of issues, including depression, anxiety, relationship issues and low self-esteem as well as people seeking support during difficult periods of transition including divorce, and changing careers.
My approach is strengths based and relational, focusing on what you need as a unique individual. I utilize a variety of therapeutic techniques but above all prioritize the human connection between therapist and client. I strive to create a warm, safe, and non-judgmental space where you can show up as you are. I am LGBTQIA+ allied and have respect for the many lived experiences that shape who you are. I aim to meet you with curiosity, compassion, and openness. I use humor when it feels helpful and offer feedback that is honest, straightforward, and gentle. Our sessions are meant to be a place to explore and reflect, as you work toward building inner strength, improving self-awareness, and developing healthy coping strategies that will benefit you now and in your future.
