As a licensed psychologist, I find that engaging in psychotherapy can often help in finding inner strengths and resilience, leading to enhanced life satisfaction and meaning. Your decision to start psychotherapy is one I honor and respect by providing you a warm and engaging space where we can explore your goals. In my 10 years of clinical practice I have been dedicated to working with adults who struggle with trauma, anxiety, or depression using evidenced based practices.
I see the work I do with clients as a journey where I can provide directions and guidance while the client takes the necessary steps to move forward with their life in a meaningful way. My clients typically describe as me kind and compassionate with most of them finding it easy to communicate openly and honestly from our first session. Using some of my favorite therapy approaches such as DBT, CBT, and trauma focused treatments, I aim to help clients find the compass that guides them to their goals. First, via enhancing their own insights onto their struggles and second, by empowering them with new skills to help them thrive and heal.
Our first session is about learning more about your story including your strengths and the barriers keeping you from achieving your goals. I strive to create a welcoming and warm environment to help you feel safe and secure. Past clients have highlighted how they find my kind and compassionate demeanor to be helpful in them building trust and being able to openly talk about some of the toughest aspects of their lives. As we get to understand a clearer picture of your interests and goals, I will provide you with a series of options of psychotherapy. Lastly, together we will build a tailored treatment plan to help you get to where you want to be in life.
