About My Clients

Are you ready for change? Please reach out to me, if the following applies to you... You want to address the contradictory thoughts that live inside you. You’re prepared to be open and honest. Less self-editing and more sharing of your inner world. You’re feeling brave. It’s time to explore uncharted waters - even if it feels scary. You want to be compassionate toward yourself, even the parts of you that feel hard to love. You’re open to change.

My Approach to Helping

Deep Listening: I offer a warm, calm presence and understanding without judgment. This creates a safe space for healing, validation and self-discovery. Tracking Patterns: We'll identify recurring themes in your thoughts, emotions and behaviors. These patterns will help gain insight about your past, present and future. Connecting Dots: We often find ourselves connecting the dots from past traumas, relationships and stories, unraveling the tangled threads of our experiences to make sense of our present. Words to Feelings: I pay attention to the unspoken feelings beneath your words to help access emotions that may be difficult to process. Feeling helps release them. Visualizations: I guide visualizations to draw connections and make meaning out of your experiences by tapping into your subconscious and uncovering underlying emotions/beliefs. Challenging Questions: By challenging assumptions and encouraging reflection, we unravel layers of understanding and promote self-discovery.

Why I Became a Therapist

I’m a therapist because I believe strongly in the power of evolution. It is possible to get closer to the person you want to be. In my own therapy, I have learned to be more honest with my experience, feel more comfortable with myself and closer to a version of me that feels more authentic and more self-compassionate. I provide a space for others to do the same.

I offer online counseling in the following states:
