About My Clients

My clients are the experts in themselves, but I would love to be a partner in having my clients feel like themselves again and use my knowledge and experience to help them meet their personal goals and healthcare needs. I am strength based and would love to see if we are a good fit.

My Background and Approach

I am taking new patients and have openings this week for evening and weekend appointments. I am a firm believer that my clients are the experts in themselves, and I can use my knowledge to collaboratively help them see the strengths they already have. I want my clients to know they don’t have to cope with life alone while meeting their specific therapy goals. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients have a different relationship with their thoughts and see how we can have their thoughts, actions, and emotions work together in a healthier way. I also use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as I love effectiveness and validation of engaging in behaviors and things we value. I also have specialized trauma training in various training and settings, including being a former Navy Psychologist.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe everyone is deserving of access to quality mental health care. I aim at dispelling stigma towards seeking mental health support. Your brain is just another organ in your body that needs attention just as any other part of your body. I am passionate about supporting those that can't always fend for themselves and volunteer for local little leagues and meals on wheels.
