I believe that our psyches are brilliantly adaptive, and am appreciative and non-judgmental toward how you’ve adjusted to your life so far.

As that designated other, I offer a warm and steady presence, a gentle sense of humor, and a genuine curiosity toward the unfolding of your story. We can start where you are, navigate what's brought you in, and...

My clients often struggle ...

We all want to be happy. We may feel stuck or face challenges. Getting support from someone on the outside, in the counseling or psychology field, can help you gain a new perspective. You can learn to make better choices, feel less anxious and feel more optimistic; find peace in the day-to-day. In my practice, I see adults, children, adolescents, couples, and families, and here’s a little bit about how I work: I work in the here-and-now and have background training in Gestalt theory and util...
