The path to wellness can be challenging as your mental, emotional, and physical experiences all play a role in your overall welfare. I actively focus on the intersection between health and behavior to help optimize your well-being.

Hi there, my name is sean. My clients find me to be attentive, compassionate, patient, understanding, and knowledgeable. I have been told before that I’m easy to trust and people feel relaxed around me.

I work with individuals, couples and families. I aim to provide an opportunity for people to grow and heal, in a safe, supportive, non-judgmental and nurturing environment. I work primarily around self-acceptance and helping people become true to themselves.

I know how hard it can be to ask for help. I provide a safe and comfortable environment for you to come in and share what is troubling you. I will work collaboratively with you to help you achieve your goals, utilizing psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral therapies.

Life is hard and everyone has to deal with suffering and challenges. But you do not need to go through things alone. I provide a safe and understanding environment for you to grow and face any challenge you need or want to process or overcome! Accepting new clients!

I offer a down-to -earth approach when working with young people, adults, and their families; adults experiencing day-to-day life with changing families, changing careers, and making life plans; and parents who are striving to do what is best for their children.

People come to me seeking someone who's done their own work and can help guide them through theirs—someone who is highly trained, compassionate, and honest. In our work together, you can expect to feel safe, understood, and free to show up as your true self.

Not just any therapist will do. You need someone you can trust to be warm but still sharp, open yet still helpful, thoughtful but not distant, and most of all someone with whom you feel confident that you can find your way to a better life. Let's get started.

Giving yourself the attention you deserve is the starting point to create change. Engaging in a validating, empowering therapeutic space is the opportunity for you to reframe your self-doubt and self-criticism into a constructive plan for moving yourself forward.

I believe everyone has the potential to meet and overcome life's obstacles. You will feel heard and understood in a trusting space as we explore collaboratively issues and emotions that may be interfering with a more satisfying and productive life.

I can help you gain freedom from addiction, get back control, and start living the life you want. If the short-term escape is no longer worth the long-term damage, we can work together to find a new way forward, building confidence, clarity, and connection.

I work with parents and chronic pain sufferers who are too hard on themselves, helping them to improve self-care and to feel more comfortable in their own skin. I believe that providing a nurturing, authentic relationship in therapy allows clients to grow.

I provide a safe, calm, friendly, empathetic & down to earth environment for you in session. Making changes or gaining a better understanding about your life can be challenging. I will provide support to you whether you are experiencing a crisis, going through a transit

Emotional wellbeing is the foundation to a satisfying life. So many things in life can throw us off balance, and our work can help you to find your center again, to calm anxiety, to be reminded of your basic goodness, the necessary starting point for real change.

I support individuals and couples in getting back to that healthier version of themselves or relationships. We will work collaboratively towards your goals and increase your "toolbox" so you feel confident when life happens.

We get it – trauma can be stubborn, affecting everything from our body to our relationships. Refuse to let the haunting of your past control your present or dictate your future. Let's kickstart your journey to healing and growth, one defiant and sassy step at a time!
