Every journey begins with a single step.
I'm here to help.
My journey to becoming a therapist is rooted in over twenty years spent navigating the multifaceted world of entertainment. This experience wasn't just about creativity and performance; it was a masterclass in active listening, understanding diverse perspectives, and adapting to constant change. I honed the ability to connect with people from all walks of life, to recognize the nuances of human communication, and to remain grounded in the face of uncertainty. These experiences now form the foundation of my therapeutic approach.
If you're feeling overwhelmed, sad, or facing relationship hurdles, let's chat. I'm passionate about helping individuals and couples find clarity, build stronger connections, and live more fulfilling lives.
You have unique values, strengths, and experiences that shape your sense of meaning, and I’m here to help you uncover and build upon them.
My Philosophy
At the heart of my therapeutic approach lies a deep belief in the inherent resilience of the human spirit. Life presents us with a myriad of challenges, and it's during these times that we often feel most vulnerable. I understand that navigating these complexities can be daunting, and I firmly believe that seeking support is a sign of strength, not weakness.
My philosophy is grounded in the conviction that within each individual resides the capacity for growth and healing. I see my role as a supportive guide, a compassionate witness, and a collaborative partner on your journey towards well-being. I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences with authenticity and vulnerability.
My aim is to empower you to develop the skills and insights necessary to navigate life's challenges with greater clarity, confidence, and resilience. I believe that by fostering self-awareness, building meaningful connections, and cultivating a sense of purpose, you can create a life that is both fulfilling and authentic. I am dedicated to supporting you in discovering your own inner strength and embracing your full potential for growth and transformation.

FAQ

A: I offer both online and in-person therapy sessions to meet your needs and preferences.

I consider these tools as a personalized toolbox, carefully selected and tailored to your unique needs and goals.
