Therapy is about being heard, being seen, and learning how to make new choices – and knowing that you don’t have to do this on your own. I have experienced working with children, teens, young adults, and families impacted by mental health challenges, crisis situations, and traumatic life experiences. I work from a client-centered, strengths-based, and trauma-informed modality and experienced in the assessment and treatment of, but not limited to, the following: CPTSD/PTSD; ADHD; Suicidality and Self Harm; Depression/Grief and Anxiety/OCD/GAD; BPD; 2SLGBTQ+ Issues; and Family Conflict.
I am clinically trained in the following evidence-based approaches: Crisis Intervention, Advanced Clinical Complex Trauma; Trauma-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT); Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT); Narrative Therapy; Solution Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
I believe that everyone is the expert of their own experience and that through supportive relationships we foster growth and understanding about ourselves that allows us the insight and ability to change. Together we’ll identify and tackle the obstacles keeping you from enjoying the life you envision for yourself and work towards building a life worth living
