Nice to meet you

My approach to therapy is to really get to know you, have a clear understanding of how you see the world, and understand what led you to your way of thinking (Is that you or your mom talking?) I bring warmth, empathy, and a bit of humor into the therapy room. When working with me, I will create a safe, judgment-free space for us to dive deep into the root of your suffering is so we can untangle those pesky issues that are bringing your life down. I have been practicing therapy for over 8 years and my passion in life is helping others heal.
