I have helped clients with a variety of different diagnoses in one on one therapy using techniques like solution focused and CBT.
It all begins with the desire for change…but as you might realize, change is difficult. And if you’re struggling with things like the desire to stop a negative thought or want to stop using drugs or alcohol, you are not alone. I am here to support you in the changes you want to make in your life, each step of the way.

I typically utilize cognitive behavioral, person-centered, solution focused, and mindfulness approaches within therapy sessions.
I believe that sometimes experiences in life can taint one’s genuine self and cause them to develop defense mechanisms that prevent their true nature from being shared with the world. My passion is to help women navigate through life’s experiences and difficulties in order to embrace and nurture their true identity. I specialize in working with women who feel stuck unpack their past and uncover their healing.

For this reason, I work best with those who are seeking a long-term partnership, however, I am also comfortable working in a solution focused style.
Therapy can often be a serious and purposeful experience, but I believe it can also be the most fulfilling and rejuvenating part of your week. After all, how often are you able to hit the pause button in life and have a safe space to talk about your challenges, relationships, transitions, or just have a chance for self-discovery? We can work together to help make sense of yourself and the world around you and to find the motivation to make changes in your life.
