About My Clients

For some of us, the challenges around managing our stress, anxiety, and feelings of depression seem extraordinary. Life's challenges can feel dark, heavy, or even impossible to deal with sometimes. Maybe you are experiencing negative and intense mood swings. Maybe you are finding it difficult to carry on at school or work. Maybe you are having trouble connecting with others and are experiencing conflict in your relationships.

My Background and Approach

I provide an integrative approach to psychotherapy for adults, including talk therapy, EMDR therapy, and mindfulness, and work hand in hand with you to identify your goals and develop personalized strategies to achieve them. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or other challenges, I am here to help you find comfort and move forward. Together, we will strive to help you build the skills necessary to move forward with ease and lead a fulfilling and meaningful life. As a therapist with nearly 20 years of experience, I’ve helped adults, children, and families in a variety of different settings including homes, community centers, schools, inpatient/outpatient treatment programs, and private practice. While I work across several areas, I specialize in healing anxiety, depression, and trauma and utilize an integrated approach to psychotherapy to empower you on your journey toward healing and personal growth.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that loving and accepting ourselves for who we are, scars and all; is one of the most courageous things we can do. With over 20 years of experience, we provide a space for you to open up and be vulnerable when you’re ready. We meet you where you are, without judgment to fully hear your experiences, challenges, and the hopes you have for your life. We walk with you to heal the past and reduce emotional pain. We help you uncover limiting beliefs that are keeping you stuck and identify and leverage your internal strengths to help you take the steps to live better. At My Therapy Place, our mission is to support individuals in freeing their minds, unburdening their hearts, and embracing their best selves. We work to identify personal goals and tailor strategies for achieving them through a journey of progress and empowerment. We use an integrated approach to facilitate healing, develop inner strength, and clear trauma.
