I am passionate about empowering clients to gain self confidence, a stronger sense of identity and the ability to build healthy relationships. I believe how we move through the world is directly connected to our most basic understanding of our selves, and the relationships and role models we have grown up with.

In addition to traditional therapy practices, I also practice (and teach) ecotherapy - a method of treatment that includes nature in the process.
