About My Clients

Are you someone who struggles with low self-esteem and self-confidence? Oftentimes, life experiences, relationships, losses, and experiences of trauma impact our relationships with ourselves. You may feel worthless or that you are not good enough. In therapy sessions, I focus on creating an emotionally safe space so that we can work towards your goals of improving your self-esteem, self-love, and self-acceptance.

My Background and Approach

I have a Masters degree in Social Work and have specialized in helping those with depression, low self-esteem, and experiences of trauma. In our sessions together, I will provide a safe, non-judgmental space for you to explore your feelings. I have been trained in various therapeutic approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), psychodynamic, and having a trauma-informed approach to therapy. During our time together, we will explore how our inner thoughts impact our feelings and behaviors. We may also use some holistic tools like a mindfulness practice to observe what you are experiencing without judgment. I have a person centered approach to therapy, which means that we will focus on what you want to during our sessions together. Every person is unique and has their own path to healing and I am here to support you along the journey.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that every person has the potential for change and growth. I believe that hope is so important to the process - we need hope as a light to continue to move us forward in the direction that we want to go. I am deeply passionate about the Earth and believe that connecting to the Earth is vital for our health and the health of our planet. I try to learn as much as I can about ways to care for our planet and how I can do my part to help. I am a registered yoga teacher and Reiki master who strongly believes in the mind-body connection. Through my work as a therapist, I find it a truly beautiful experience to help others connect more closely with themselves and accept all the parts of themselves. If you want to see how I can support you along your journey, send me a message. Looking forward to connecting with you!
