Occupation: Clinical Psychologist
Interests: Therapy helps people to develop a deeper understanding of themselves and their relationships, become free of old patterns, or simply find ways to process pain or memories that have kept them feeling stuck. It is a healing process that allows people to not only start feeling better but gain insight, awareness, and ultimately begin trusting their intuition and experience. Relationships are as capable of hurt and pain as they are for healing. I am an active, involved therapist who has a heart and a passion for this work and care deeply for the people that come to see me. I look forward to getting to know you, understanding your unique challenges, and meeting you exactly where you are.
