Therapy style
It is a privilege to enter into the lives of my clients, therefore, holding space that shows reverence, curiosity, and compassion is key. My style is warm yet directive. I operate from a strength-based perspective and will highlight the values held by my clients along with the many strengths they bring. I have experience working with high-conflict families and couples and appreciate the work involved in finding new ways of relating. Lastly, I appreciate collaboration and feedback from clients regarding what works, what is not working, and what could be done differently to achieve emotional wellness.

Interests
I love to exercise! Going out on hikes and yoga are both ways I re-charge the battery. I also love the arts to include going to hear live music or attending musicals or plays.
