My style of therapy is to meet my clients where they are and provide Solution-Focused treatment to support learning how to manage your emotional self outside of therapy. I have worked as a therapist since 2014 with adults, families, and couples so I have a wide range of experience providing individual therapy to a diverse population.
I am skilled in focusing on emotion regulation, shifting negative and intrusive thinking patterns to improve how a person navigates stress. It is also essential for me to support people through some of their most challenging times in life and for many, therapy provides just that!
I'm a therapist with Octave and Evernorth Behavioral Care Group. Octave is a mental health practice providing high-quality care covered by multiple insurances. Evernorth Behavioral Care Group is a behavioral health provider group in-network with Cigna Healthcare and Evernorth. For my availability, please reach out to Octave’s team by emailing or calling.
