Just like the people I work with, I have a unique set of experiences that make up who I am. Below you can find an outline of my areas of study, and who has helped me develop into the clinician I am today. What you will not find below - and perhaps one of my greatest areas of strength - is my personal journey through therapy. I spent years doing the hard inner work that good therapy requires so I know how challenging and rewarding this work can be. I also understand how disappointing it is when therapy doesn't work as I had tried several and had read many self-help books before I found what worked for me. It takes a lot of courage to continue reaching out for help!
