Licensed Therapist
Walt Disney said, “We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we’re curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.” For most people, moving forward is the goal; we want to continue living our best life. Unfortunately, sometimes we can get stuck along the way. Maybe this is because all the doors in front of us seem locked, or maybe because we’re not sure which door to open.
The good news is you don’t have to figure all of this out by yourself. I’m here to walk beside you, help you foster that curiosity about the past, present, or future, and walk with you as you go through the new, open door.
I work form a person-centered perspective, meaning I care about you and what you can do to accomplish the goals you’ve set for yourself. I’m here to help guide you through whatever challenges you’re facing to become the best version of yourself. My co-therapist, Zero the therapy dog, is also excited to lend a paw in your process.
I’m comfortable working with individuals, couples, and children. I work from a wide range of modalities such as IFS, EMDR, EFT, and several different types of play therapy including child centered play therapy, animal assisted play therapy, and theraplay.
