I utilize an eclectic approach, incorporating cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness and trauma focused techniques.
All people deserve to be valued, no matter their age, ability, socioeconomic status, ethnicity, or sexual orientation. They should also have the freedom to choose how they experience life. There is no one perfect way to live. People come to therapy with various life experiences and levels of understanding, that is why there is not a one size fits all approach. Your journey is your own. As your therapist, my goal is to provide you with a safe, affirming, and empowering space. This means that I will treat you with unconditional positive regard, congruence and empathy. I believe that every person deserves these things on a human level.

Certified in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
Limited appointments available. All appointments are currently online via secured telehealth platforms. Help is a click away! Symptoms involving trauma, anxiety, depression, and challenges with relationships often make us feel isolated. Gaining insight, awareness, motivation, and tools to improve well being are my primary focus. This can be a difficult process but it can also be an enjoyable one.

I provide therapeutic services based on my training and knowledge in DBT Therapy, Trauma Focused CBT and CBT Therapies, Attachment-Based Family Therapy.
Reaching out to begin therapy can be both overwhelming and a hopeful time to begin something new. A time to create change in your relationships, work functioning, or day to day life. I take a holistic approach to therapy work and seek to understand each person within their environment, which allows us to work collaboratively on changes that feel attainable and sustainable. I like to start a session by offering a cup of coffee (or drink of your choice!) and sit down in open conversation steered by your needs at that moment. Laughter, tears, grief, and joy are some of the many welcomed and honored emotions in the therapeutic space.
