As a clinician, I believe in the strength and resiliency of the human soul. My passion is helping you to own and understand the many stories that create your personal narrative. A life story is not simply one story with a beginning, middle, and end. It is a collection—an anthology—and, as such, it has multiple beginnings, middles, and endings. There is tremendous importance in owning and understanding your life’s stories. Therapy is the process of developing a compassionate relationship with yourself through integration of these many stories. You can learn to look at life from a new perspective with hope, optimism, and forgiveness. I will use narrative therapy to work collaboratively with you to assist in weaving the different pieces of your story into a cohesive whole that is understandable and meaningful. I use cognitive behavioral therapy to address ways of thinking that may be keeping you stuck and to help you find new, life-affirming ways to address issues that arise. I also use insight-oriented therapy and person-centered therapy to meet you exactly where you are in your narrative. I am trained in trauma-informed care, and my professional experience includes extensive work with adolescents and adults experiencing depression, anxiety, interpersonal struggles, and behavioral challenges, as well as those in acute crises.
