I approach my work with an awareness that the reasons we seek therapy are extremely individual. I strive to work with clients on the goals they bring, whether immediate or long term, and to adapt my approach as these goals evolve. I am intentional about noticing and normalizing—seeing the life stage clients are in and how this might be amplifying difficulties, and emphasizing the normalcy of struggle, pain and shame. Having had the benefit of a therapeutic relationship during some life transitions of my own, I am passionate about the power of connection in therapy.I bring a relational, collaborative approach to work with adults, adolescents, couples and groups. I have a particular interest in working with young adults navigating life transitions, individuals experiencing depression and anxiety, body image issues, family conflict, grief and loss, and perinatal mental health challenges.Making the decision to come to therapy—and finding a therapist you connect with—is hard. But I believe that trying to work through something increasingly difficult on your own is much harder.
