I am currently only accepting new clients for equine-assisted therapy. I specialize in helping clients who struggle with codependency, anxiety and trauma. I also love helping people learn to set boundaries and communicate more effectively. The clients who fit best with me are people who have struggled with feelings of guilt for taking care of themselves and who don't know where to start when it comes to setting boundaries. I also work well with clients who are ready to start processing, healing and resolving trauma both large and small, and treating themselves with more compassion.

In my 6 years as an advocate for victims of crime, I witnessed the impact trauma can have on the mind and the body. I am passionate about bringing awareness to the effects of trauma and am actively involved in organizations dedicated to effectively responding to and eliminating intimate partner violence and sexual assault. I understand that for many trauma survivors, healing may seem an impossible task. I believe that healing can be achieved by eliminating feelings of shame and developing effective coping skills through evidence-based treatment in a safe and non-judgmental environment.

Motivational Interviewing Therapists
How does motivational interviewing work?
Motivational interviewing aims to uncover a person’s internal motivation to change their life. Toward this end, the therapist listens, empathizes, and collaborates with the client based on their perspective; the therapist doesn’t adhere to a predetermined plan for change or impose their viewpoint on the client. Discovering an individual’s most important reasons for change, and guiding them to achieve those changes, can empower people to shift from ambivalence to action.
Is motivational interviewing evidence-based?
Yes, research shows that motivational interviewing can help treat alcohol and substance use — and in different ways such as reducing drinking, reducing resistance, and increasing the likelihood of staying in treatment. Motivational interviewing has also been shown to help people lose weight, adhere to medication regimens, improve diet for those with Type II diabetes, and improve healthy behaviors in children.
How long does motivational interviewing last?
Motivational interviewing is a short-term therapy that can last just one or two sessions. In some cases, motivational interviewing may be used in conjunction with longer-term therapies, but for most people, motivational interviewing is a brief intervention that aims to help patients understand their personal, specific, and internal reasons for changing their life.
What differentiates motivational interviewing from person-centered therapy?
In person-centered therapy, the individual is in the driver’s seat of the treatment process, creating space for them to trust their instincts and arrive at their own solutions. The two approaches are similar because motivational interviewing is also client-centered; however, person-centered therapy is more open-ended while motivational interviewing is somewhat more structured; the goal is to change, and the therapist helps the client specifically discover their internal motivations to modify their behavior.
