About

I take the approach to healing as a personal journey, one that is guided as a team effort between client and therapist. Self-discovery is about coming to understand what is figural and symbolic for us in our lives and what has sets that in motion. Whether it is early experiences, messages we internalize, or attachments we make, once a person has discovered what is at the center of who they are and how they view the world, then they can begin the journey to making personal change and live a more authentic life.
I am experienced in working with people from diverse backgrounds and respect people’s personal world views. Much of my work has been working with adolescents and families from the LGBTQ community. I consider that a specialization in my work. As a LGBTQ community member, I consider myself an advocate to those that identify with any minority status.

I use a Humanistic/Gestalt perspective when working with my clients, but also have a strong background in using mindfulness techniques. I believe the use of coping skills must be used in combination with process therapy. They work hand in hand to achieve better well-being, both mind and body. Together we can find ways to incorporate more healthy practices while gaining more self-awareness of yourself and your life.
