About My Clients
Clients may come feeling like they are struggling to move forward with life, or missing the answers to make life better. I help increase motivation, understand symptoms, and find lasting solutions. Healing is possible for those willing to engage, learn, and grow. I love to collaborate creatively to help decrease the isolation of mental health symptoms. Sometimes during life, we forget to allow ourselves to heal, set boundaries, or face emotions that we have suppressed via unhealthy behaviors.
My Background and Approach
I utilize evidence-based treatments including DBT (dialectal behavior therapy), CBT (cognitive behavior therapy), and ERP (exposure response prevention). We consider theories like Polyvagal Theory to better understand emotional regulation and how emotional regulation can be foundational to experience better health and better relationships. My clients experience success by increasing their ability to manage and address symptoms of anxiety, depression, and ADHD. You can expect sessions to be structured yet flexible. Some days we may focus on learning practical skills to manage symptoms, while other days we may slow down, process emotions, or make sense of patterns that feel confusing or overwhelming. I strive to balance warmth and authenticity with evidence-based guidance, so sessions feel both comfortable and purposeful.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
My care is culturally competent, ethical, and respectfully aligned with up-to-date evidence-based treatments. I have my master’s degree in social work from the University of South Carolina and my undergraduate degree in fine arts from Stephens College in Columbia, Missouri.
