About My Clients

I focus on building and regaining self-esteem and confidence by helping clients change negative automatic thinking, confronting harmful relationships, and addressing unresolved issues. My clients want a better life, free of distress that is often caused by high levels of anxiety and depression. This often involves helping them overcome struggles related to addiction (substance & behavior), intimacy issues, and anger management.

My Background and Approach

I have over 10 years of experience working in a therapy and counseling role. I often use cognitive, behavioral interventions to help you understand and change your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. I'm also a proponent of solution-focused therapy that helps you set goals, identify your strengths, and create actionable plans for change. I work with adults and younger clients (children, teens, adolescents).

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I have had to personally overcome many of the same challenges faced by my clients which helps me to be empathetic and understanding of your needs. I take a humanistic approach to counseling and therapy, believing that anyone has the ability to change and be happy.
