Welcome

Seeking therapy is a brave and vulnerable endeavor. It can feel overwhelming to think about what you’re specifically looking for, both in the work you’re about to do and the person you’ll be choosing to work with. Many prospective clients feel the same way. Sometimes it can take time to figure out what kind of therapy – and what kind of therapist – will provide the kind of support you need. My hope for you is that you find a good match for you (even if that isn’t me) and begin to believe that you will feel better.

My approach to therapy is unique to each client I work with and evolves over time. I am trained in a variety of methods that have been proven to help people get through tough times, but I am not the type of therapist who always goes by the book. As I get to know you and learn about your unique experiences, personality traits, and strengths, I can begin to assess what techniques might be most helpful for you – usually a combination of traditional counseling methods with creative, experiential approaches (such as expressive arts and nature-based interventions, among others). I want to help you learn to work with your own brain and heart, rather than against them.

I invite you to peruse my site and to consider contacting me for a free phone consult, as hearing someone’s voice can give you a lot of information that you can’t get from viewing words on a screen. I look forward to speaking with you!
