About My Clients

Bringing years of experience working with individuals across the lifespan, I have worked with many people through depression, anxiety, autism spectrum disorder, and the stress of life transitions. Although I do love working with all individuals of any age, I have a passion for working with individuals who are 60+. I am dedicated to providing compassionate and effective care to my clients.

My Background and Approach

I approach clients with a more down to earth personality to help clients feel comfortable while using evidence based treatment. Some of the approaches include: Person-centered, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Strength-Based, and Solution Focused.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I recognize that starting therapy can be incredibly scary as you have to be open and vulnerable with a complete stranger. With this in mind, I allow and encourage individuals to participate in therapy at their own pace, even if that means talking a session or two about nothing related to therapy to help you feel more comfortable. Your comfort in therapy is what is most important throughout the the whole process because if you can't feel like you can be yourself or have to be "perfect" what is that going to help?
