We all lose sight of who we are from time to time. One of my favorite things is helping clients to reconnect with their authentic selves.

About My Clients

I am passionate about helping those who are feeling disconnected, as though they have lost their sense of identity or control over their own lives. I have experience working with those who struggle with addiction, along with people needing support with pregnancy and postpartum issues, anxiety, and/or depression. I will work to honor who you are as an individual while moving toward goals that can help you feel like the best version of your true self.

My Background and Approach

My approach is warm and down to earth, and I value the trust and relationships that I develop with my clients from the very beginning. I believe that at our core, we are all inately resilient and resourceful. However, our inner critic will often speak its mind and create a mindset riddled with self-doubt, fear, and anxiety. Helping my clients to learn and practice self-compassion is at the root of my work, along with utilizing cognitive behavioral and mindfulness techniques. For once we learn to begin to counteract our self-defeating beliefs, we set the stage for greater personal growth. Together, you and I will develop treatment goals to help you move forward, and you will begin to internalize how capable and strong you truly are.
