As a therapist, I prioritize creating a comfortable and authentic therapeutic relationship built on genuineness and honesty. I approach therapy with empathy, and flexibility aiming to create a supportive, tailored environment based on your unique experience. My approach emphasizes promoting autonomy and empowering clients to recognize and address maladaptive patterns of thoughts and behaviors. Together, we will navigate challenges, foster growth and resilience, and create meaningful and lasting change!
My approach utilizes a collaborative therapeutic process where you are recognized as the expert in your life. I often work with behavioral therapies while incorporating other evidence-based strategies along the way to help identify and challenge unhelpful patterns of thoughts and behaviors, create transformative changes, and build solid coping skills.
In my office I want everyone to feel seen, heard, and valued. All are welcome and I celebrate all types of identities, backgrounds, and orientations. New client inquiries are welcome! Please use the website linked and fill out the "New Client Intake" form on my page! this allows me to respond the quickest!
