You’re trying your best, but life didn’t use to be this hard. Things aren’t going right. You notice it’s harder to be happy, to feel connected, or even to get out of bed in the morning. It feels like you’re failing...like you aren’t good enough.
You’re tired of pretending to be okay. On the inside, you feel so sad, worried, and angry. You’ve pushed things down and ignored it, but you wonder how much longer you can do that. You’re used to fixing your problems on your own, but this time you can’t figure it out. You’re stuck. You want help.
You’re not alone.

We only know what we know. There’s so much about life that we’re never taught, or the ways we were taught were unhelpful or harmful. I believe that every person has the ability to change, grow, and heal. We sometimes just need a little help. That’s where I can be of service. My hope is that clients feel safe, accepted, and understood when they meet with me. I honor and acknowledge the inherent dignity and worth of all people. I value the chance to work with people from diverse backgrounds, cultures, identities, and beliefs.
My desire as a counselor is to come alongside people and offer new tools to help navigate this life and to bring people more into their authentic, whole self.

Welcome to a therapeutic space where the journey of Self discovery is honored and the shared human experience is embraced with compassion and depth.
Being human includes navigating through a spectrum of life experiences, some of which can be both beautiful and profoundly challenging. Challenges can give rise to the experience of loss, longing, and isolation which may seem overwhelming to bear alone. The common experience of feeling uncertain, anxious, isolated, depressed, grieving can lead to reactions which intensify our sense of separation.
Through my work, I nurture a space where individuals can explore the transformative power of non-judgemental awareness as it relates to the complexities and challenges in life. My goal is to help others integrate a deeper sense of peace into their lives.
If you are seeking transformation through a therapeutic relationship that integrates mind training and an experiential practice of peace and calm, I invite you to join me in this collaborative process. Together, we can navigate the complexities of life circumstances, fostering growth and transformation, through a deeper connection to the Whole Self.
