My Practice
Individual Therapy: Sometimes life brings us to a place where we need more than suggestions, we need a space to slow down, go deeper, and understand ourselves more fully. I work with adults and young adults navigating depression, anxiety, grief, relationship pain, and the quieter struggles that are harder to name. I am also drawn to working with people who are not in crisis but feel an ache for something more, more meaning, more clarity, a stronger sense of who they are and what they want their life to look like. My approach is warm, collaborative, and rooted in a genuine belief in your capacity to grow.
Therapeutic Coaching: For those who want focused, forward-moving support outside of traditional therapy, therapeutic coaching offers a powerful alternative. Drawing on my clinical background, we work together on your specific goals, building skills, shifting patterns, expanding self-awareness, and creating real momentum in your life. This is practical, relational work guided by the same care and depth I bring to the therapy room, and it can be an especially good fit for people in life transitions, navigating major decisions, or simply ready to grow.
Family and Parent Coaching:Families can get stuck in cycles that exhaust everyone, especially when a struggling family member, conflict, or difficult transition is central. I work with parents and families to improve communication, deepen connection, and build new ways of relating that actually work. This is not about blame or fixing anyone; it is about helping every person in the system find their footing so the whole family can move forward together.
Recovery and Sobriety Coaching: I have spent much of my career working with individuals and families affected by substance use, and it remains some of the most meaningful work I do. I work from a biopsychosocial model, meaning we look at the whole picture, not just the substance, but the feelings, experiences, and patterns underneath it. Whether you are newly sober, thinking about making a change, or working to protect a recovery you have already built, I will be with you in it.
Clinical Interventions: When a family watches someone they love struggle with addiction or destructive behavior and feels helpless, intervention can open a door in away that nothing else has previously. I work with families to plan and carry out compassionate, carefully structured Love First Interventions, guided by clinical experience and deep respect for everyone involved. This is sensitive work, and I will be with your family every step of the way.
