I find purpose in creating a safe space for clients to explore and process their thoughts and feelings, while ensuring they feel seen, heard, and understood. Clients who are a good match are seeking new ways to find expansion and authenticity in their lives, while adding to adaptive coping skills. Over the last 15 years, I have gained experience in providing treatment for a variety of concerns including depression, anxiety, grief, relational issues, parenting, trauma, abuse, and risk management.
I draw from a person-centered and interpersonal approach in sessions, guided by CBT, Trauma Informed Care (CCTP), Family Systems approach, and Solution Focused Therapy. I will remain curious about your experience and facilitate discussion which will lead you to discover that you have always held the key to unlock solutions.
I believe everyone has mental health. The severity and intensity it needs attention varies throughout our life span, just like most things. It takes courage to ask for help and I feel privileged to be in the position to provide you with support and guidance as you work towards feeling like the best version of yourself. I look forward to working with you!
