About My Clients

As a therapist, I believe in creating a safe, non-judgmental space where my clients feel heard and supported. I have experience helping individuals navigate various life transitions, anxiety, depression, and seeking clarity in their personal and professional lives. I have 6 years of experience helping individuals with substance abuse and mental health issues, giving me insight into a wide range of life challenges.

My Background and Approach

My therapeutic style is collaborative and compassionate, with a focus on empowerment and personal growth. I often use techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help challenge and reframe unhelpful thought patterns/behaviors. I work from a strengths-based approach, meaning I recognize and build upon your existing strengths, even when life feels overwhelming. I am here to walk alongside you, help you uncover solutions, deepen self-awareness, and navigate through life's challenges.
