I love working with adults (age 18 and up) on anxiety, depression, attachment styles, and body image issues. My ideal clients are those who feel like they have been repeating habits and behaviors that are unhealthy and are wanting to learn how to change those patterns. I teach clients how to identify personal and interpersonal needs that are currently unmet and how to set more effective boundaries. I enjoy assisting clients who want to better understand their behaviors and learn how to develop self-awareness skills to help them feel more in control of their lives.
My approach with clients is warm and also direct when appropriate. I am certified in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) which utilizes rapid eye movements and guided imagery to help clients live with peace after spending years suffering from trauma symptoms, panic disorders, anxiety, and depression. I also utilize DBT and CBT informed modalities
Summer is my favorite season because my dog, Sprout (pictured, of course), is more likely to join me outside and also I am a baseball fan. I am a step-mom to two elementary-school-aged kiddos, If you would like to know more about how I may be able to help you, please reach out to schedule a 10-15 minute consultation call! I look forward to hearing from you.
