Welcome! Are you experiencing an unexpected transition, difficulties in relationships, feelings of uncertainty, or are you at the threshold of having to make significant life decisions? If any of these questions resonate and you are in search of guidance to actualize change in your life, therapy can offer a compassionate private space to deepen your process of self-inquiry, gain renewed perspective, heal from past pain and losses and reimagine your future through clarifying your truest feelings, needs and choices. Therapy is most optimal as an interactive collaboration between client and therapist with the relationship at the heart.
My specialities are integrative and aimed at addressing challenges that traverse the lifespan to include developmental trauma (in particular, physical and/or sexual abuse in early childhood), substance abuse, anger issues, aging, attachment, relationships in conflict, identity confusion, criminal justice (legal) involvement and grief & loss.
I invite you to reach out to request a complimentary consultation (by phone or video), so that we may meet to connect and see if we feel to be a good fit.
