About My Clients

If you struggle with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trouble at school or with friendships, career stress, marital issues, divorce, parenting, neurodiversity including Autism/Asperger’s, ADHD or neurocognitive deficits, or anything that is preventing you from living a joyful, fulfilled life, let’s talk! Therapy is like auto maintenance. If we don't keep up with oil changes, something major is bound to break eventually. So whether it's a tune-up or major repair, I'm here to help.

My Background and Approach

I have a background using Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I interned at The Village of Kairos, where I was able to help lead individual and group therapy sessions for adolescents, parents, families, and adults including in-the-moment coaching. I believe in incorporating CBT, DBT, Reality Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, depending on each client's needs.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Therapy is personal. It is individualistic. It is not a one-size-fits-all endeavor. This is why it is so important if you've had negative experiences with therapy in the past, to continue trying therapists until you find the right fit for you. I would love the opportunity to get to know you and for you to get to know me. Life is so hard at times. I would be honored to help you through the rough spots to get you to a positive place of happiness, peace, and fulfillment in your life.
