Great to meet you!

I work with young adults and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, stress, and trauma. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Focused CBT, Solution-Focused, and Feedback Informed Care, I support clients in making progress and living more fulfilling lives. I enjoy helping people develop a deeper connection with themselves, feel more confident and secure, and have a more positive outlook on life. Seeking help can be very challenging, so congratulation on taking that first step! The goal of therapy is progress, not perfection.

My approach to therapy

My approach is strength-based and client-centered, tailored to each person's needs. I meet clients where they are with empathy, a nonjudgmental attitude, and unconditional positive regard. These modalities help us build a therapeutic relationship and work together towards your goals.

What you can expect from me

During our first session, we will talk about how you have been feeling recently and previous therapy experiences. I will ask questions to gain a better understanding of why you may be feeling that way. The first session is about building a therapeutic relationship, seeing if my style is a good fit, and beginning to discuss your therapy goals.
