While I individualize sessions to the uniqueness of each client, I often utilize talk therapy techniques from several evidence-based practices, including DBT, CBT, and psychodynamic therapy, along with the use of art therapy techniques.

I have been working in the mental health and social work field for several years, where I most recently supported children and teens in the crisis intervention setting.

The therapeutic techniques I use include, but are not limited to, Play Therapy, CBT, and DBT.
Do you ever feel overwhelmed because you don’t know the next steps to take to help your child? Does it feel like you can't have a conversation with your child without it turning into a fight? If the answer is yes, we should talk! One day your child will be able to have a conversation with you without arguing. They will wake up and not feel instantly anxious about the day. They will be able to fall asleep without overthinking everything that happened during the day. They will be able to recognize their emotions and verbalize their needs with you.

They may be experiencing symptoms such as anxiety, depression, or difficulty managing relationships. I believe that by addressing the root causes of these challenges, we can develop effective strategies for coping and building resilience. I am particularly drawn to clients who are open to exploring their emotional experiences and are committed to personal growth.

I bring to the table knowledge about mental health, primarily from a cognitive-behavioral perspective.
(Currently have waitlist) Some people feel stuck and unable to move past their worry, sadness, trauma, or grief. Others aren't quite sure why they feel the way they do, but know they want to feel differently. Coming to therapy can be a daunting and scary task, and finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming. My aim is to help people along their journey of becoming un-stuck and finding clarity. This process is easiest when patients feel comfortable opening up and do not have to fear being judged for their inner thoughts.
