Professional Statement

I am currently working toward my certification in Sex Therapy with the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counelors, and Therapists (AASECT).

My approach is person-centered. I believe your individuality and expertise of your own unique experience of life is important and valuable in our work together. With that, I integrate multiple therapeutic approaches to support your specific goals in therapy and provide you the means to learn about yourself. I often work within the approach of Experiential, Somatic, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT).
One of the hardest parts of therapy can be finding a therapist, someone you can trust and feel safe with. I hope to provide the space for you to explore the difficult and find peace in knowing yourself more deeply.

I offer services for adults: individuals and couples. I currently am seeing clients through telehealth.
