I am a therapist passionate about listening to the stories of others. I provide a safe space to tackle difficult issues and heal from the affects of trauma. In the past I found myself in therapy, and when my therapist helped me improve the quality of my life I decided I wanted to sit in his chair one day. I've devoted my career to that pursuit.

Therapy doesn’t have to be sitting on a couch while someone asks, “And how does that make you feel?” every five minutes. I want therapy to feel like a place where you can actually be yourself. No judgment. No pretending everything is fine. No having to make your problems sound “bad enough” to deserve help. You can show up as you are.
