A little about me

I'm a licensed Therapist
​​My first priority is to get to know you as a person. I'm trained in a variety of approaches, and I like to pull from those approaches to customize a plan that works best for you. The complexity of my own personal and professional experiences help me bring depth to our work together. Research shows that the most important predictor of effective therapy is a "good fit" between the therapist and the client. I hope I can be a good fit for you and your needs.


Some approaches I utilize
-
Internal Family Systems
-
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
-
Psychodynamic
-
Client Centered
-
Emotionally Focused
-
Trauma Informed Therapy

Creative Play
