About My Clients
I work with children, adolescents, teens, and young adults to assist them in processing their thoughts and feelings, developing healthy, fulfilling relationships with family, friends, and peers, improving self-image and self-worth, and identifying and utilizing effective individual coping skills.
My Background and Approach
During my time as a therapist I have worked in outpatient, in-home, in-school, community, and detention settings. I use a wide variety of modalities with clients. I draw on CBT, DBT, Existential, Narrative, Trauma-Focused, Solution-Focused, Client-Centered, and Play therapy approaches in addition to many others. I work with clients to creatively individualize their treatment approaches, as we know one size does NOT fit all.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe humans are constantly learning to navigate the world around us and seek meaningful, authentic connections with others - that involves art, play, and many other creative endeavors, in and out of therapy. When I'm not providing therapy you can find me at the beach connecting with nature, playing with my dog, reading, writing, jamming out to music, and enjoying stand up. I believe laughter is one of the greatest parts of life and one of our biggest assets, and I find great satisfaction in finding humor in my therapy practice and my personal life - because sometimes it hides! I actively and proudly support the LGBTQ+ community, racial justice, and equality.
