My Background and Approach

I believe therapy begins with creating a safe, supportive environment where clients feel heard, understood, and respected. My approach is collaborative and tailored to each person's individual experiences, needs, and goals. I want clients to feel comfortable being honest about what they are going through while working together to better understand their emotions, relationships, and the patterns that may be affecting their lives. I specialize in couples counseling and have Level 1 certification in Gottman Therapy, while also working with children, adults, couples, and families. I have experience supporting clients navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, family challenges, foster care, adoption, and relationship difficulties. As the founder of Calming Waves Counseling, I believe there is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. Our team brings together clinicians with different specialties, experiences, and therapeutic approaches so that clients can find support that is tailored to them
