I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and include elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Art Therapy. Cognitive behavioral therapy is a psychosocial intervention that is the most widely used evidence-based practice for improving mental health. Guided by empirical research, CBT focuses on the development of personal coping strategies that target solving current problems and changing unhelpful patterns in cognitions (e.g. thoughts, beliefs, and attitudes), behaviors, and emotional regulation.

I pride myself in the work I do with the LGBTQ community and working with children and families. I have experience working with all ages.

Therapy should be about you. I will start where you are at today and together we will map out a direction to get you to where you are happier, more fulfilled, and coping well.

Change takes courage and together we can help you to find the hope and belief in yourself that you can change and that you deserve to be happy.

Do you find yourself struggling with loss or life changes and find it difficult to cope? Are you having symptoms of anxiety, depression, addictive or unhealthy behaviors? When many think of loss and grief, one may assume they have lost a loved one. At times this is the case, but there are so many kinds of losses we are faced with in our lives; loss of self, loss of roles in life, loss of relationship, chronic illness and many more. Losses can cause us to question our lives and who we are, and can even bring up past hurts or negative ways of coping that are not helping us achieve our best selves.

An ideal client is between the ages of 8 and 25 years old and is someone who is experiencing challenges with their mental health, interpersonal relationships, emotional and/or behavioral regulation, or executive functioning. They may identify as LGBTQIA2S+. Their goals include developing insight into their challenges as a way to grow and learn about themselves. They are open to services and are looking for help to manage their challenging experiences.

I have worked with clients in many settings and of many diverse backgrounds. I would love the chance to get to know you. A therapeutic experience with me is centered on YOU and together we will do hard things.

My approach with clients recognizes that most people are looking for tangible help, don't have a lot of time between work and family, and want to feel like they are moving toward a better understanding of solutions to address their difficulties. My work with clients acknowledges these issues. I take a very active role in counseling to explore the options with my clients, provide new knowlege of issues where relevant, and help an individual to reach their potential. Issues related to marital/partner, parenting/child, family,work,school,stress, anxiety, depression, and substance abuse are all areas I work with.

Initiating therapy can be a challenging process. Whether this is your first time looking for a counselor, or you've had one before, picking who you want to work with can be daunting. The initial sessions are meant to build trust and rapport, setting the foundation for a comfortable environment to open up and share your experience.

I am a dedicated professional specializing in helping individuals who feel stuck and have explored various avenues without success. With a focus on addressing issues that interfere with daily life or understanding the impact of past experiences on the present, I am committed to guiding clients toward a way forward.
