I have spent over four years helping adults, teens, and families. I've had training in trauma-informed treatment, grief, and crisis response. I spent a total of six years in higher education studying this profession. I prioritize understanding the client’s experiences without judgment, using active listening and empathic responses to show that I genuinely understand their perspective
I draw from a variety of evidence-based therapies, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), or Psychodynamic approaches, depending on what best aligns with the client’s needs. I focus on helping clients identify and build on their strengths, as well as explore practical solutions to current issues. I often incorporate mindfulness and self-compassion exercises, helping clients develop resilience and reduce self-criticism.
Overall, clients can expect to feel more empowered, gain clarity on their goals, and build lasting skills that they can continue to use beyond therapy. This environment and these goals foster a path toward self-acceptance, growth, and a greater ability to handle life’s challenges.
