About My Clients
Are you feeling anxious, on edge, or frustrated that you can't stop worrying? Are you feeling overwhelmed by the demands of every day life including work, relationships, family, and children? I specialize in working with women experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues and life transitions across the lifespan as well as women who are overly self-critical and wanting to building self-confidence and cultivate meaning in their lives.
My Background and Approach
My approach to counseling involves providing a safe, supportive, and collaborative environment where expression can take place and awareness and growth can be explored through understanding and non-judgmental interactions. I also use humor as well as gently challenge clients to try new things to create meaningful change. I utilize an integrative approach combining evidenced-based treatment practices of CBT, ACT, and EFT to build upon your strengths, identify life solutions, develop resilience, create healthy and meaningful relationships and cultivate self-acceptance. I work with you to change your relationship to unhelpful thoughts and improve present moment awareness. I help you get unhooked from painful and distressing thoughts and emotions and move you toward behavioral changes that are consistent with your personal values.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe in social justice and I believe in hope, love, equality, equity, inclusion and kindness. I value our cultural differences and similarities and celebrate the opportunity to learn from one another. I believe that the overall health of our relationships impacts our quality of life. We will work together to help you build the necessary skills to express yourself effectively and move toward more healthy relationships.
