I'm here to help you with life's challenges and to assist you in finding solutions that will improve your well-being. I'm interested in the many factors impacting our lives, including individual biology, personal psychology, social environment, and philosophical outlook. I work with teenagers and adults dealing with life transitions, grief/loss, anxiety, cancer, depression, substance use, trauma, and various artistic concerns. I have a background in the arts as a performer, teacher, lecturer, and author, and use my experience to help bring new levels of understanding and workability to your life. I bring authenticity, enthusiasm and a high-energy, positive approach to our work together. I work primarily using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), EMDR, Existentialism, Polyvagal Theory, Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT), and Motivational Interviewing (MI). I choose not to work with insurance companies, ensuring you can trust in full confidentiality and a non-labelling approach to our work together.
