As a board-certified psychotherapist, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to mental stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step! I’ve been practicing for over 10 years. I have had the opportunity to support individuals and families in their journey to healing and resilience.
Everyone has a unique story and deserves an individualized approach to care. It’s important to me that we foster a collaborative therapeutic alliance tailored to meet your individual needs and treatment goals. I take a holistic and adaptable approach to help you build insight and explore and understand patterns.
I used an integrated therapeutic style, utilizing evidence-based strategies from various models such as Trauma-Informed Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Existential, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Structured Family Therapy, and Person-Centered psychotherapy. Other therapeutic approaches used include play therapy, Gestalt Therapy, Relational Cultural Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing Therapy, among others. Knowing multiple approaches allows me to tailor therapy to fit each person’s treatment needs. Beyond all techniques and therapeutic modalities, I believe that the therapeutic relationship built between therapist and client is fundamental to the process of healing, and I make every effort to ensure that this is established early on. The safe and open environment of that relationship can serve as a blueprint for your experiences of everyday life and can guide us on how to address any difficulties and conflicts, interpersonal or otherwise. I see myself as part of your team, and while using my training, I wish to assist you in decreasing any debilitating symptoms or behaviors and increasing your successful experiences in everyday life with a holistic approach to improve quality of life.
Through life experience, I learned that difficulties presented to us are an opportunity to learn and grow. However, that journey can be exhausting or overwhelming. You don't have to do it by yourself. My goal is to provide a safe and compassionate space where you can navigate towards healing. Together, we’ll explore patterns, build insight, and develop practical tools for healing and resilience. Each session is tailored to meet you where you are, drawing from a variety of therapeutic approaches to meet your unique needs.
