About My Clients

Do you put other's need ahead of your own? Do you feel stuck or stagnant in some area of your life? Do you struggle with depression or anxiety? Do you procrastinate? Do you need help breaking unhealthy habits? It’s hard to surrender and ask for help at times, but if you’re reading this, it’s time to take care of YOU. I want to help you learn new skills to manage your struggles as they arise while defining and working toward your goals.

My Background and Approach

I have been a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist for over 15 years with experience working with a wide range of mood, relationship, and behavioral issues. I am a life long learner and always want to learn new techniques to assist my clients. I am sensitive to each client's personal experiences and cultural background. I am trained in several evidenced based treatment modalities and am not a one size fits all type of therapist, but rather will design a treatment plan that is tailored to your unique self and circumstances. My areas of expertise include anxiety, depression, trauma, substance abuse, codependency, relationship issues, and young adult/ life transitions. I use several treatment modalities, including trauma informed therapy interventions, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Positive Psychology, Strength- Based Therapy and Mindfulness-Based Therapy.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

The relationship with your therapist is the most vital part of therapy. It’s crucial that you feel safe and understood as you share your most personal thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I will listen intently and thoughtfully collaborate with you on your treatment goals. Therapy offers an opportunity for you learn more about what is serving you well and what is blocking you from reaching your goals or having peace or joy in your life. Together, we will explore your inner motivations, thoughts, and feelings in order to learn how they impact your mood, energy, and relationships. With these new insights about yourself, you will be more equipped to cope with future challenges in your life. Lastly, you will be encouraged to practice new skills to help soothe and expand your mind, body, and spirit.
