About My Clients

I am passionate about working with children, adolescents, and young adults. These populations are often undergoing transitional periods and abrupt stages of change that can cause anxiety, extreme stress, and other mental aspects of their health.

My Background and Approach

I enjoy utilizing psychodynamic theory, which allows for the client to gain a deeper sense of understanding of what is happening in their unconscious. This approach is helpful to clients because it allows them to dig deeper into their past to gain awareness of where they are in the present.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that I am in the business of loving people, and allowing people to realize how worthy they are. I believe in the power of therapy and how it can heal the deepest of wounds, while being refreshing at the same time. I hope that my clients can feel empowered to make the changes that they want to change and utilize their autonomy to have more control over their lives. I will champion my clients, guide them, and provide an unconditional positive regard for them as a human and the lives they live.
