Have you ever felt overwhelmed by the thought of starting therapy? A little nervous about what sessions will be like? Has there always been a part of you that wanted to find a therapist who “just gets you”? In our sessions, you can expect a laid-back, caring, and empowering environment. I always greet my clients with a smile and start off with a reassuring question, ensuring that you feel comfortable and supported right from the start. My goal is to make therapy a safe space where you feel you can be vulnerable, knowing that you’ll be met with compassion, empathy, and acceptance.
I have a passion for supporting both adults and adolescents through their healing journeys and encourage each client to take it one step at a time. I have spent my time as a therapist dedicated to supporting clients as they navigate challenges related to trauma, depression, and anxiety.
I believe that everyone’s path to healing is unique, which is why I tailor my therapeutic approach to meet the specific needs of each client. My practice is informed by a variety of therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), strength-based approaches, structural family therapy, and trauma-focused therapy.
I’m particularly passionate about creating authentic relationships with my clients, often using humor and shared interests like music and being an animal lover, to connect on a deeper level and make the therapeutic process more engaging.
A few of the quotes that inspire my work as a therapist are: “Being vulnerable is the ultimate act of courage.” “The best way out is always through.” “There is hope even when your brain tells you there isn’t.”
I work with people of all ages, so no matter what stage of life you are currently in, I’m here to help and am committed to supporting you on your way to finding hope and healing. If you’re ready to take the next step in your mental health journey, I look forward to walking that path with you.
