About My Clients

Each client has the unique ability to draw from their strengths in order to improve daily functioning and identify areas of growth and healing. My goal is to partner with my clients to assist in this process.

My Background and Approach

Every step taken in the pursuit of happiness, health, and wellness is a gift you give to yourself and to those around you. Making the first steps toward necessary change can be difficult, but with every step comes growth, awareness and renewed balance. Life presents us with so many challenges and finding support during these difficult times can be very helpful. I will encourage you to identify and draw from the internal strengths you have as well as introducing you to the therapeutic approaches that guide my practice to assist you in coping with the challenges you are experiencing. In addition to the treatment of mood disorders and other listed areas of practice I also specialize in the area of anxiety and trauma. My practice is highly sensitive to the unique challenges in the treatment of different forms of trauma. I have additional training in evidence based trauma focused CBT and have specialized training in EMDR.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Every step we take towards balance and wellness within our mind and body is a positive move towards overall health. We are all given challenges that disrupt our functioning at times and any decision to seek support during those difficult times allows us to integrate balance and coping skills during the challenges we encounter. I believe in a compassionate and supportive environment which fosters a safe place to process and find solutions. I come from a strengths and trauma-informed perspective which strongly guides my practice.
