I believe every person deserves a space to feel seen, heard, and accepted while discovering their own capacity for change, healing, growth, courage and resilience.

My approach is real, imperfect, warm, and grounded in curiosity, humor, and compassion. In our work together, we'll make space for more honesty, compassion, and choice.

When I think about personal challenges, I often refer to The Wizard of Oz. The lion longed for courage; the scarecrow, a brain; the tin man, a heart; and Dorothy, the feeling of home. At the end of their journeys (spoilers!), each character discovers that their deepest yearnings are also their strongest resources.

I am a relational, compassion-focused student therapist specializing in mindfulness-based and transpersonal counseling.
