I am a narrative therapist. I strive to create a therapeutic space that is grounded in the present moment, strength-based, and trauma- informed. A space where you can unfold your own life story, gain an understanding of your coping skills and personal style, and become empowered and resourceful because healing should be natural not topical. 
 
The principle I stand on, and what guides my practice, is the belief that everyone is deserving of kindness and respect. With my background in developmental psychology, and the power of narrative, I’ll help you draw connections across timelines and parts; we’ll figure out what to keep, what to toss, and what to polish. 
 
I have a background in working with individuals, couples, and families.
