Great to meet you!

Hello! I work with clients, combining both nursing and psychotherapy techniques to address issues from a trauma-informed, biopsychosocial perspective, seeking to help clients improve holistically.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I work from a trauma-informed perspective, to help you overcome struggles with depression, anxiety, grief, and PTSD, to name a few, using a personally tailored set of techniques, including DBT, CBT, REBT, RTT hypnotherapy, Solution-focused Brief therapy, and Faith therapy.

What you can expect from our first session

From our first session, we will work to develop a safe and welcoming relationship, in a space that can allow you to reach the healing, growth, and freedom that you are seeking. Over the course of our work together, you can expect to gain insight and self-awareness, as well as practical tools & techniques from research & evidence-based modalities, helping you to learn specific skills to help you overcome negative beliefs, unhealthy behaviors, and unhealthy patterns in relationships.
