Welcome! I am so glad you are here. My approach to psychotherapy is to provide a warm, safe and non-judgmental environment for teens and adults to explore challenges, mental health struggles, and gain self-efficacy to reach their goals. I work with clients anywhere from ages 16 and up, and have experience working with anxiety, substance abuse, and trauma. I utilize EMDR as a way of helping clients manage and move through trauma related symptoms. I embody a direct but gentle and empathetic approach with my clients in order to provide an environment that fosters growth and safety.
I am allied with first responders, nurses, military and other front-line workers, and am passionate about providing support to those who help serve our communities and Country. However, my clientele is not limited to first responders, as I encourage any and all to reach out to see if we would be a good fit in order to help you reach your goals.
I provide a free 15-minute, confidential consultation on the phone, to discuss your current challenges and to determine together if I would be the therapist that could best serve you and your needs. Please feel free to email or call, as I would be honored to help you navigate your challenges and goals with curiosity and compassion.
