In office, via telehealth, and outdoors...
Over the last 25 years I've successfully supported clients through life's inevitable transitions (graduation, relocation, marriage, divorce, pregancy/new baby, career shift, major decisions, etc.), as well as those suffering from various forms of anxiety. I also work with couples seeking to strengthen, skill-build, and revitalize their relationship. I have lived experience with blended families and understand the complexities of parenting, partnering, and growing up in that framework. Let me help you find greater clarity regarding your own unique path forward, and achieve peace within yourself and your most cherished relationships. Establishing trust and creating a safe working relationship is my first priority; from there, I lean heavily on experiential, CBT, and mindfulness-based approaches. Clients are often given "homework" (journaling, experimenting with new behaviors, etc.) designed to help them apply the skills and insights gained in therapy to everyday life. Recently certified in nature-informed therapy, I provide outdoor sessions for clients interested in engaging Nature as a "co-therapist" in our work together.
