Therapy changed my mental health and life for the better
My first step into therapy was on the other side of the relationship — as a client. Everything, from the outside, was just 'fine,' but I was listless, confused, and anxious about life. It felt like everyone around me was happy when I wasn't, and I wanted to figure out why. What was wrong with me?
I know how it feels when everything is okay but not quite right beneath the surface. And I know how it feels when you heal and come out the other side confident in yourself, the choices you make, and with the permission to live a life that is entirely yours.
After experiencing treatment, I wanted everyone to have access to this life-changing opportunity, so my career and journey to normalize therapy began. I had found my Ikigai, my life’s purpose. A vocation I am passionate about, that the world needs, and that I excel at.
Ikaigi = Reason for being/
Iki = Life/
Gai = Value or Worth
I can never know your lived experience, but we can explore it from a blank canvas together.
I'm here to serve you with a wholehearted commitment to you and your health.
It is the honor of my life to do this work every day, and I am so thankful to be given access to your world in such a profound and meaningful way.

What is Narrative Therapy?
Narrative Therapy uses the stories you tell about yourself and your life to help you see things from a different perspective so you can create new stories, new experiences, and a new future.
It's rooted in curiosity and an understanding that there are many possible directions a conversation can take, directed by you, not me.
You are the expert in your own life. By looking at the significant events that have shaped you like a story, you can reframe situations and rediscover your dreams, values, goals, and skills separate from your problems.
I will support you and provide the guidance and perspective needed to help you understand how these experiences have shaped you and how we can rewrite them so that you can create a life that reflects who you are, what you're capable of, and your purpose.
