About My Clients

I work with a variety of concerns to include: depression, anxiety, everyday stress, parenting, aging, , life transitions, ADD/ADHD, PTSD, grief and loss, attachment disorder, trauma, and anger management. Additionally I specialize in working with adopted children and their families. I work with pre-adolescence through to older adults.

My Background and Approach

I like to take a person centered approach, starting where you are at and working from there. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for trauma/anxiety, attachment therapy, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness. I am also a certified anger management treatment professional. I am currently in supervision to be a fully certified Trauma Focused CBT provider. Making that initial step to contact a therapist is hard- arguably the hardest step in the process. I challenge you to push through that discomfort and take the first step towards becoming the best version of yourself!

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

In addition to my formal education, I am a black belt in Tae Kwon Do and am currently practicing Muay Thai and boxing. I have put to practice the mind body connection and have seen firsthand how the combination can be beneficial for some!
