pursuing counseling and selecting a therapist can be difficult, but it is also a very important decision. therapy is a collaborative process, so finding the right match with a therapist you feel comfortable with and can trust and open up to is critical. I provide a safe, confidential and warm therapeutic environment with counseling interventions customized to your individual needs. I offer non-judgmental, compassionate support in a client centered environment where you and your needs are the priority. In addition, I have set my rates to be quite affordable as I believe everyone should have access to quality counseling services. Please check out my fees page for more information.
I am an interactive therapist who works collaboratively with my clients to help identify your needs and goals and then help you on your path of growth and desired change. My focus is to maximize your existing strengths and internal resources as well as help you develop new skills to decrease inner conflict, improve your relationships and realize your innate potential. Please keep in mind that therapy is work, and sometimes it can be painful, but it can also be very rewarding and ultimately one of the best gifts you can give to yourself. I often joke with my clients that my job is actually to work myself out of a job. I welcome and would feel honored to have the opportunity to take part with you in your therapeutic journey to wellness.
I will be accepting new patients at my new office starting 8/19/2024. for your convenience, I offer early morning, evening and weekend appointments, both in person and by secure video. If you have any questions about the services I provide, please do not hesitate to contact me. I offer a free phone consultation to discuss your needs and figure out if we might be a good fit to help you achieve your therapeutic goals. In addition, these phone consultations will hopefully put you more at ease for our first appointment.
