Feeling overwhelmed and stuck? Looking to make changes but not sure how to move forward? Perhaps I can help. My experience working in business, healthcare, college counseling, and mental health has given me a range of skills and the ability to work with issues related to adolescents and adults dealing with life transitions. My role as a counselor is to empower clients so they can move forward. Depending on the situation, my approach ranges from a gentle nudge to direct suggestions. I specialize in working with students, adult clients, adults with perfectionist thinking and ADHD, and high functioning autism. LGBTQ+ friendly.

The therapeutic relationship creates a unique space for patient and therapist to explore and uncover new possibilities for growth and change in areas that are of importance to the patient. I work collaboratively with patients to dislodge and free up deeply-embedded patterns of behavior and ways of relating to others that can keep us stuck and prevent us from moving forward, from achieving important goals, and from developing satisfying relationships that are nurturing and sustaining. Relationships are central to my work with patients, whether working individually, in couples therapy, or in a group.

Supporting growth in self-awareness helps us lean into who we are, accept ourselves, and look at growth edges that may be painful or scary.

I practice from a clinical, Gestalt-oriented, developmental lens with evidence-based approaches, to support clients where they are and as they engage in the therapeutic process.
