I have engaged in additional trainings to help me further understand the anxiety and mood disorders that can show up during and after pregnancy. Feeling the "baby blues" is a typical feeling that many women experience, but what a lot of people do not realize is that for MANY women that feeling doesn't dissipate and can actually intensify and develop into a situation that interferes with a mother's ability to care for her child and herself in the way she would like to.

I have received many trainings that emphasize CBT techniques and I find that it is the most versatile modality to help identify and restructure our thoughts so that the way we think can help push us forward rather than hold us back.

I am certified in Dialectical Behavior Therapy.

More than anything, I pull from many modalities depending on what my client needs. I believe therapy is an ongoing process, and in order to be effective I engage in regular, ongoing training that pull from a variety of modalities so that I can bring options to our sessions. Therapy is not a one size fits all experience so my opinion is that the approach shouldn't try to make it such.

My practice specifically aims to assist those who are currently in, or recovering from, a relationship with someone who displays narcissistic tendencies or an antagonistic relationship. Those who find themselves in that type of relationship, whether chosen, assigned, or born into it, often feel alone and misunderstood by others who can't understand the intricacies and complications that exist in such relationships. I aim to be the support those people need.

As a professional, and a parent myself, I understand the stress and overwhelm that can exist in the important role of parenting. Often times parents feel like they are dealing with issues that no one else can imagine, and being able to come to counseling and receive unconditional support while navigating those irreplaceable years is invaluable.
