I am a Midwesterner by upbringing, drawn to the stunning Pacific Northwest for its mountains, oceans, and rainforests. Rain over ice and snow? Yes, please. As a musician who loves playing bass and guitar, I've enjoyed performing for live audiences and soaking in live music from a wide range of genres. I'm also a huge animal lover, with a special fondness for my three dogs, Gracie, Ghost, and Sweetie, who might just make a cameo during our sessions. And as an avid comedy fan, I believe in bringing a bit of humor to lighten our conversations. I prefer a person-centered approach in therapy and meet each client where they are on their journey. From here, we can collaborate and navigate each challenge together as I support you on your adventure of self-discovery and healing. This approach allows me to tailor our sessions to your unique needs and experiences, fostering a compassionate and non-judgmental space for growth. Rooted in Midwestern sensibility but embracing progressive values, I’m deeply curious about the hopes, dreams, flaws, and fears of my fellow humans. Tell me your story and we can discover where it can take you next and how to get you there.
