Description
I help people develop solutions to problems and challenges that get in the way of living well. Clients may use terms like depression, anxiety, trauma, and stress, e.g., to describe the challenges bringing them to therapy. Regardless of the challenges, problems, or difficulties you are experiencing, you have potential to live well, and I am able to help.

Summary
My clients live with anxiety, depression, strong and sometimes overwhelming feelings and urges. They often experience difficulty in work, relationships, school, and social situations. As a collaborative, trauma-informed, strengths and actions-oriented therapist, I help clients struggle less with negative thoughts, worries, memories, feelings, sensations, urges, and relationship issues, so they can spend more time and energy being the person they want to be.
