About

Are you having difficulty finding a therapist who's a good fit? Did you know that research indicates that the single most determinative factor in successful therapeutic outcomes is the strength of your connection with your therapist? That's why I prioritize a person-centered approach, grounded in empathetic and supportive listening. The first step to helping you solve your problems is to truly understand you: Your life experiences, values and worldview are all important components of your identity, and connecting with and better understanding your identity is crucial to successful therapy. I believe empathetic support is more beneficial than generalized prescription. My goal is to get to know you in a space where you feel comfortable being yourself. Though therapy is primarily about addressing your thoughts and worldview, the external factors impact your thinking are often ignored. I aim to honor those factors in my practice. It's important to acknowledge and honor how your life's unique challenges–cultural, historical, social and economic–can affect your thinking, contribute to anxiety and depression, and strain relationships. You CAN improve your life, mental health, and how you approach obstacles life places in your way. The first step is connecting with the right therapist.
