What is therapy? Can that answer be the same for every person? My belief is that therapy is not a one size fits all process. It’s a journey that has many twists and turns, and can vary from person to situation. It is my honor as a psychotherapist to be on that journey with my clients, to help guide them towards their goals and most importantly uncovering their purpose for it. Seeing personal growth and therapeutic success for a client makes it all worth it and reminds me of my purpose in the mental health field.

Life's changes often create challenges that may be traumatic for some that can generate overwhelming feelings of anxiety and depression that can cloud our ability to perform our best and create achievable goals. These overwhelming emotions can also create maladaptive behaviors that can impact one's safety and overall well being. Learning how to understand and manage these emotions is key. I am able to offer children and families creative/fun ways to do this in a non-threatening manner that allows them to feel comfortable enough to let their guard down and trust the process.

I use a person-centered approach, a holistic one, to meet you where you are. For instance, what might be the nature of a depression? Each person is a bit different, and so can be the contributing factors. I will build a therapeutic relationship with you, based on trust, non-judgment, and empathy, so that you feel comfortable to take a deep dive within.

I try to have an approach that is inviting, authentic, and non-judgmental. I believe that therapy should allow the clients to have autonomy within sessions while maintaining focus on their treatment goals. I typically integrate DBT, CBT, SFBT, Mindfulness Based, and Motivational Interviewing approaches; but will engage in an approach best fit to the client in front of me. My goals as a clinician are to promote a sense of autonomy and foster resilience in each individual I work with. My hope is that I can serve as a source of support and encouragement, walking alongside clients as they grow, change, and move forward in life.
