About My Clients

Life is hard. Asking for help can be even harder! If you're here and looking for a therapist, you've taken the first steps to making a change. My focus is working with adults 18+ for individual therapy services. A few areas of my expertise include anxiety, depression, life transitions, illness adjustment, and trauma.

My Background and Approach

My goal is to offer a comfortable, conversational environment where you can express yourself freely. Together, we’ll explore what works best for you to achieve your goals. I believe in an integrated approach to therapy, meaning, I use different styles of evidence based practices to help my clients. I integrate techniques and skills from CBT, DBT, Family Systems, Mindfulness, and more. With a background in varied settings including community mental health, medical case management(inpatient and outpatient), and individual therapy, I've learned that different techniques meet different needs. Helping others does not come with a one size fits all solution and it is crucial to be able to pull from multiple modalities to help someone in their therapeutic journey.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I hold a strong belief that every person is valid and should be treated with dignity and respect. The world is a tough place and we never know what someone else may be going through.
