About My Clients
You may be a good fit for me if you: have ADHD, have children, are a family with adult children in the home, are a lifelong learner, are tired of looking at the positive side all the time, and are willing to work on your problems in and out of therapy! In therapy with me, you will find: psychoeducation on your brain, figuring out your needs and wants, support with learning and applying your boundaries in your relationships, and so much more! I value learning tools that you can use that day!
My Background and Approach
I spent my college career dedicated to making a change in the world with activism and found myself getting into a career where I was working directly with people to live their best lives. I ended up going to graduate school to become a therapist because I noticed such a need for providers that had experience with people with developmental disabilities. I have a women’s studies degree that really focused on how the world and our culture impact our identities, so I make sure that I consider your culture and community in your treatment. I consider it such an honor to learn about people, their families, and their goals. I believe in order to create change in the world, we often have to start with ourselves and therapy is a great resource to help change the world we live in. A value of mine is collaboration. I know in order to have a great life, one needs a great community. I'm a strong communicator and use this to help clients grow and advocate for themselves.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I value lifelong learning and am the first to sign up for training and read a new book. I use this in session with my clients all the time and if you don't have time to read a book, I will give you the "cliff notes" version. I find that this helps me be the best therapist as I then provide updated quality care for clients! My personal belief is that individual change is important to systems changing, which is why therapy is world-changing. I love doing individual and family therapy, but sometimes a good option in group therapy, and look forward to growing my practice in that scope. Another value of mine is finding the "best fit" therapist, I value my connections with other therapists professionally and if I am not a good fit for you, I can find you someone that is! I want a client to feel like they are making a great choice in their therapist, even while navigating insurance systems and other system structures that make accessibility so hard for finding a best fit therapist.
