About My Clients
I work with adolescents, adults, and families who are experiencing depression, anxiety, life transitions, and symptoms of trauma/PTSD. I also offer parent coaching or family therapy to families who have children with severe mental health struggles, are looking to learn modality-specific coping are wanting to offer support to their loved one going through mental health treatment, or are wanting to improve communication, connection, and empathy with one another.
My Background and Approach
My background is in music therapy and clinical counseling. I collaborate with my clients to explore and navigate their experiences so they can better understand themselves and create effective change. My therapeutic approach is based in client-centered, trauma-informed, psychodynamic, and creative arts. Through these different philosophies, I work with my clients to create more effective coping skills, increase independence, and improve their relationship with themselves. I believe that my clients and I are a team and that my clients are the experts of their life experiences. Together, we create a safe atmosphere that honors vulnerability, trust, and individual creativity.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe in creating an accepting, warm, and open environment with my clients. I value authenticity, honesty, and respect in the therapeutic environment. All people deserve a place of safety where they can grow and change at their own pace. It is my honor to be a part of my clients' life journeys.
