Great to meet you!

I CARE! I work to work with you to find that all inclusive balance to bring the joy back into your life. Life can be hard with all that it can entail.

My approach to therapy

My style is collaborative, based on years of nursing experience and using evidence based tools to learn about you. This will serve as a guide to inform what therapeutic tools may be helpful at the present time to help you function fully at the present time.

What you can expect from me

Get to know me as I get to know you. An introductory session that focuses on your needs. I commonly draw from evidence based tools to work to find the problem. Once we decide to work together, WE not me will work to find the right fit for your therapeutic journey. Whatever you need, I am prepared to provide support.

Should you decide to reach out to me, I tend to take this collaborative approach, working together to define goals that are both meaningful and realistic. Above all, the priority is to provide an emotionally safen place and supportive space allowing for authentic self-reflection and growth.
