"Making that first appointment, and asking for help, truly takes courage and is the first step to new beginnings." I believe that providing a safe and supportive space, combined with therapeutic collaboration, facilitates change. I utilize an eclectic approach and believe in using evidence based treatments, tailored for each unique individual, their specific needs, and desired goals. I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families who are ready and motivated toward change, however, just aren't sure how to get there. Once given the proper tools and skills, options appear and the ability to choose a better path presents itself.

• "Do not judge me by my success, judge me by how many times I fell down and got back up again." – Nelson Mandela. I believe every individual has been gifted with unique strengths due to their life experiences. We all possess the ability for healing, growth, and self-development. Oftentimes, we can feel "stuck" and lose motivation in life. I have had the honor to support clients of all ages in their healing journies by utilizing ACT, CBT, DBT, Solution Focused, Trauma Focused & Strength Based interventions.

I believe that everyone is capable of achieving goals that align with their values and what is important to them. Unfortunately we encounter many stressors in our day-to-day lives that pull us away from living a valued life. Things like stress relating to work, relationships, chronic pain/health conditions, past traumas, symptoms of mental health conditions, or any combination of these can act as barrier with living the life we want.
