Hi, and welcome to the next chapter of your life. Whether it be trauma, loss, addiction, stress, or everyday struggles that brought you here, you’re making a brave leap and seeking support. Our lives are filled with ups and downs, pleasure and pain, but hard work and dedication to your own mental health can help carve a more stable and bright path. Therapy is an amazing chance to process and work through current struggle, past ruptures, or worries about the future. My goal as your therapist is to work as a team to address, process, and grow from your concerns. I will provide an open space, free of judgement, full of empathy!
I have experience working with all ages, families, & couples working through trauma, PTSD, body image and disordered eating, self harm, suicidal ideations, gender identity & sexual orientation struggles, addiction, depression, and anxiety. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Attachement Based Family Therapy, & EMDR.
I strongly believe every person should have the access to therapy and mental health. My approach over time has become welcoming, warm, but also clear and direct when needed. There is hope and I look forward to uncovering that hope with you!
