Do you find yourself wanting to feel happier, feel less stressed or want to be calmer? My counseling approach is focused on using positive psychology to help achieve a happier, more fulfilling life. I believe in focusing on one's strengths, while working on one's weaknesses. I believe strengthening self-esteem is one of the keys to helping conquer any issue. I routinely treat people suffering from depression, anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, mood disorders, relationship issues, eating disorders, and everyday stress.

A therapy relationship is a real relationship, between equals. I take a collaborative approach, recognizing that people already know themselves, or have the potential to know themselves, better than anyone else, and yet we all have blind spots that can contribute to suffering. I work together with clients who are coping with depression, anxiety, difficult life transitions, trauma--both PTSD and complex PTSD, dissociative disorders, and self-harm behavior or other impulsive behaviors. I am intensively trained in DBT, and can teach you a variety of healthy coping skills to address any behavior or difficult emotions.

I work best with individuals in which are internally motivated for change, looking to work collaboratively alongside the individual to explore depression, anxiety, PTSD/trauma, substance abuse, and much more. My approach to therapy is person-centered, focused on offering a compassionate, yet straightforward approach to growth, which encourages individuals to think deeper and build connections that will assist them with a better understanding of the underlying issues. I believe in creating and modeling a healthy human connection to make those feel safe as possible in a time for many that can feel vulnerable.

My ideal client is facing challenges with past trauma. This client has suppressed their trauma but recently has difficulty sleeping, lacks motivation, is disconnected from friends, and feels empty. They have sought therapy to start addressing the needs mentioned above, but as they begin engaging with me, they realize that they have recollections of trauma endured at an early age. Additionally, this client has been unable to address this trauma with family due to difficulty communicating and impacting the family dynamics. They want to be able to talk to family members without feeling shame and also build coping skills to heal.

My ideal client is someone who feels like their life just isn’t working - maybe they’re struggling with unresolved anxiety and depression or leaning on alcohol or marijuana a little too much to cope with everyday stressors. Maybe they’re going through a big life transition or just aren’t satisfied with their relationships. Whatever their current issues are, this person wants to feel better but doesn’t know how to get there. They are open to therapy and ready to see where it could lead them.

My ideal client is one who is willing to explore uncomfortable areas in their life and understand that vulnerability is part of the process. One of the most important parts of therapy to me is highlighting accountability and what roles we play in our own lives. I enjoy working with clients who are struggling with relationship issues, self-esteem, irrational thinking, and life adjustments. A client who can pinpoint what they would like to improve in their life and request a little bit of guidance along the way is an ideal client. Their goal is not to be perfect but to improve their day-to-day life a little more each day.

My ideal client is curious about themselves and the world and actively participates in the therapeutic process. I enjoy working with young adults and older adults, but I'm not limited to these populations. My ideal client is at a place of feeling "stuck" in their life. Whether that be a career transition, deciding on a college major, feeling lost in a relationship, or a new onset of symptoms. I am also comfortable with helping individuals unpack their past to understand their current habits. My ideal client wants to understand their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors to develop self-awareness and self-compassion along the way.
