I believe that therapy is the most successful when there is a trusting relationship between the therapist and the patient. In order to establish a connection, I strive to meet my patients where they are through providing an open and safe space which allows them to freely express themselves without judgment. We all have a story to tell and every story is different. Often times, between the lines of the story lies the clarity that allows for healing and forward movement. My goal is to read between the lines and help patients fill in the blanks.

The therapeutic environment offers a unique opportunity to share, confront, and enhance parts of ourselves while exploring and discovering deeper traits and skills that we may possess.

I value modeling transparency, care, boundaries, and healthy support systems. I believe that challenging dialogue in a safe environment leads to internal growth.

Many humans suffer from emotional distress and psychological symptoms due to aversive life events. Often times, negative experiences can become “stuck” in our brains impacting how we perceive ourselves, others, or the world. Our beliefs about ourselves can become skewed and negative. As a trauma-trained therapist, I can help you work through these past events and shift these beliefs in order to be able to live the life YOU want to live.

Our work with clients is meant to be supportive and comprehensive. Our work begins by learning about our clients, the situation, and their goals. We gather this information through listening and engaging our clients. We will then discuss practical next-steps that are relevant to each client's experience. Our services include psychotherapy and psychological testing. Our brief psychotherapy model seeks to help individuals, couples, and families flourish.

Life can be undeniably difficult at times (increasingly so over the last few years). Sometimes, it becomes too much, and we need help to navigate and walk through those times and regulate those emotions/feelings. A need for a calm, confidential, non-judgmental space to express where you are and where you want to be. A place to find solutions, insight, and perspective. A place to learn some techniques to attain your desired health and life goals.
