I believe that therapy begins with an open and trusting environment where a client feels safe and respected. I find it important to always put the needs of the client first, supporting them and helping them discover the positive attributes they have inside. I believe in a welcoming and relaxed therapeutic approach to help support individuals on their life journey. By providing empathy and a judge free environment, I hope to diligently work with others and support them along their journey and help meet their goals.
I have an array of interest stemming from Trauma, Depression, Anxiety, Life Transitions, Self Esteem and Anger Management. From personal experience, I specialize in working with individuals who have acute psychiatric conditions and individuals experiencing depression, anxiety and trauma. I enjoy working with a great variety of individuals and am LGBTQ allied
I take pride in helping individuals through some of the toughest times of their life. It can be difficult to come to therapy, but it is my hope that I can provide the support and empathy needed in a space where clients feel welcomed and accepted. Prioritizing your mental health is the first step.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
