I know that for some, the task of finding a therapist, navigating insurance and out-of-pocket expenses, and figuring out scheduling can be daunting. I try to make this process as clear and flexible as possible. For others, the daunting part is what might occur in the therapy space. Although it's not always an easy process, I am here to ground you and guide you. I offer concrete skills that you can use both in and out of session to cope with stress, shift emotional states, and regain equilibrium. I may ask tough questions at times, but I will also hold space with kindness and understanding as we seek out the answers together. My hope is that you find what you are looking for, whether it's relief from symptoms, a greater sense of purpose, or a profound sense of peace.
