I know that life can be hard and suffering is part of the human experience. I also know that we are all doing the best we can with the resources and experiences we are given and sometimes we need a little help and guidance to get "unstuck". This can feel very overwhelming and my goal as a therapist is to support you through that process. I will work hard to provide a safe and validating space for you and I also promise to challenge you to reach your goals in therapy. I will be there for you with my full, unbiased attention to support you in your journey to find healing through positive, long lasting change.
In my clinical work I take an integrative and evidence based approach to address each person’s unique needs and I believe in empowering my clients to become their own most impactful healers. I am trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Prolonged Exposure and Cognitive Processing Therapy.
I know it's important to find the right match in therapy. My goal is to provide some comfort and ease while taking this first step. I truly enjoy the work I do and love helping clients reach their goals.
