About My Clients

Hello! Life stressors and expectations can lead us to experiencing an array of emotions. As a therapist, i believe that therapy is intended to be a space to heal, develop new coping skills, gain understanding of behaviors, and learn new and healthy responses. Anxiety, stress, anger, trauma, and relationship conflicts can all be experienced while navigating through life. I look forward to meeting you and taking that first step into starting your therapy journey.

My Background and Approach

Taking the first step can be hard, but you don't have to take it alone. As a therapist and addictions counselor, creating a place to grow, be empowered, and heal is my main focus. My goal is to meet you where you are and provide empathic listening while creating a safe place to grow and develop healthy coping skills. My approach is eclectic using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that everyone deserves therapy and an opportunity to express emotional experiences. I believe in the power of empathy and how understanding and listening can create a place of growth and healing. We all deserve a right to be heard, no matter the experiences. As a therapist, that has also utilized therapy, i know it works. My own personal struggles of life and self-worth have proven therapy to be a great tool. I believe in community and the power of valuable support. Compassion, Affirmation, and Empathy are the tools that create change!
