Notice an increase in anxiety, depression, and/or stress in recent years? Worried your anxiety has begun to affect self-esteem, interpersonal relationships, or overall enjoyment in life? Living with this is difficult and does not need to be managed alone. By offering a welcoming space and utilizing an individualized evidence-based approach I aim to help clients reach their personal goals. I utilize a strengths-based approach to empower clients to challenge negative self-talk, support emotional regulation, and develop healthy coping skills.
I specialize in working with children, adolescents, adults, and families as they navigate life and stressors related to issues such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, identity, school/work conflicts, and family and relationship problems. I provide professional, relatable, and flexible cognitive- behavioral based therapeutic services.
I will work with you to support your goals, manage your frustrations, and celebrate small victories. Stigma against mental health makes the first step to getting help difficult, so I applaud the courage it takes in getting this far. I invite you to continue this momentum and reach out to me today!
