Waitlist For New Clients: Thank you for considering me as a source of support. I understand that contacting a therapist can be an important step, and I appreciate the trust involved. At this time, my schedule is full, but I would be glad to add you to my waitlist and contact you when an opening becomes available. Because availability can change unexpectedly, I’m unable to provide an exact timeframe. If you would prefer more immediate support, I encourage you to continue exploring other therapists while remaining on my list. I look forward to connecting when space becomes available. I hope the right support becomes available to you soon, and I’m wishing you well as you take this meaningful step forward. “Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced.” ---James Baldwin If you’re seeking change I want you to know that you are not alone and help is available. I’ve been a therapist since 2002 and I offer integrative therapeutic services that mirror my professional values. Integrative therapy is a progressive form of psychotherapy that combines different therapeutic tools and approaches to fit the unique individual needs of each client. I approach counseling with genuine curiosity. I have confidence in my client's ability to determine their own definition of a life worth living. Therefore, you can expect warmth, a direct informality, evidenced based practices, experience, and a playful spirit permeating throughout my work. In-person and telehealth sessions are available. Video telehealth sessions offer the same quality of service as in-person counseling, but from the comfort of any private spot with an internet connection.
