Engaging in therapy is a brave step and I applaud you for being open to this journey. My goal is to provide an accepting and welcoming environment where thoughts and feelings are explored without judgment. I strive to be open and understanding as you work through the unique challenges of life and learn more about yourself along the way. I believe you are braver, smarter, and more valuable than you truly realize.
I draw from a variety of modalities and modify therapeutic interventions based upon the needs of the client since therapy is not a one-size-fits-all. My expertise involves working with adolescents (12+) and young adults on issues including life transitions, self-esteem, relationships, self-harm and suicidal ideation.
I use a collaborative and transparent approach that allows active participation in developing personal goals and creating the desired growth. If you are searching for a safe space to explore and learn, I hope to hear from you.
