Welcome

Hi, and welcome. If you are here, you may be looking for a place to begin or return to therapy, or to find a counselor who feels like the right fit. I know that starting this process can feel vulnerable, and I believe it can also be a meaningful step toward understanding yourself more deeply and with greater compassion.

My hope is to offer a space that feels steady, collaborative, and honest. I show up with warmth, curiosity, and care, and gently help clients examine the patterns, beliefs, relationships, and experiences that may be shaping how they move through the world. I value therapy as a relationship in which you can feel supported while being invited to grow.

Therapist spotlight

What made you decide to become a counselor?

I've always been interested in understanding human behavior, especially how our experiences shape how we think, feel, and relate to others. My own counseling experience deepened that curiosity and helped me appreciate how meaningful it can be to examine familiar patterns from a different perspective. I was drawn to a profession that combines genuine human connection, thoughtful exploration, and the opportunity to help people gain a deeper understanding of themselves and their lives.

If you could teach the world one skill or technique to improve their lives,what would it be?

Radical acceptance. It's the practice of acknowledging reality as it is, rather than how we wish it were. This doesn't mean approving of a situation or giving up on change. It means recognizing what's outside our control so we can focus our energy on what is within our control.

If you could recommend one book to all your clients, what would it be?

Choosing just one book is difficult because what resonates with someone often depends on where they are in life. One I frequently return to is The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz. I appreciate its accessible exploration of how our assumptions, beliefs, and communication patterns influence our relationships with ourselves and others. It invites readers to question familiar ways of thinking and consider how they might approach life with greater awareness and intention.

Have you personally been to counseling? If so, what did you learn about yourself?

Yes. Counseling has reinforced the importance of self-awareness, compassion, and accountability. Understanding what shaped us doesn't define us; therapy helps us recognize patterns, question long-held beliefs, and relate more intentionally to ourselves and others. I've learned that meaningful change often begins with curiosity rather than judgment.

How do you relate to mindfulness? How do you incorporate it into your sessions?

I think of mindfulness as becoming more aware of our experiences with curiosity rather than immediately judging or reacting. It doesn't require meditation or quieting the mind. Sometimes it's simply noticing what we're feeling, recognizing a familiar thought pattern, or becoming curious about why a particular situation affects us the way it does.

In therapy, I incorporate mindfulness in practical ways that reflect each person's needs. This may mean slowing down to understand an emotional response, noticing how stress affects the body, or creating space between what we feel and how we choose to respond. Over time, this can build self-awareness and emotional flexibility, helping us approach everyday experiences with greater clarity and intention.

If you are hosting a dinner party, who are the 3 people you would invite and why?

I'd invite Alan Watts, Ram Dass, and Dr. Gabor Maté. I'd be eager to explore Watts's philosophical views on the self, consciousness, and our tendency to seek certainty and control. Ram Dass could share thoughtful insights on mindfulness, compassion, and how self-acceptance relates to personal growth. I'd also be fascinated by Maté's perspective on how early experiences shape our emotional lives, relationships, and behavioral patterns.
