Great to meet you!

I create a safe space for clients of all ages and backgrounds with various mental health related issues. During my lengthy journey, I have managed to reach out and help hundreds of people improve the quality of their lives. I have educated and empowered clients to reduce symptoms related to Anxiety, Depression, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Psychosis, Oppositional Defiant Disorder and ADHD.

My approach to therapy

I provide numerous hours of talk-therapy per week for those that have needs around trauma, bereavement counseling, relationship issues, career counseling, significant life changes, homelessness, spirituality, socialization, medication management, personality disorders and developmental disabilities. In my approach, I use evidence-based practice models such as CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy and Supportive Counseling.

What you can expect from me

I take a careful, thorough approach to understanding what is really going on before we build a plan together. The goal is not just to manage symptoms: it is to get to the root of things so the changes actually stick. If that approach resonates, I would love to talk.
