Hello! As a therapist, I understand how difficult and exhausting it is to reach out for help. I am here to walk with you in your mental health journey. I have experience working with individuals from all different backgrounds and all different settings such as in hospitals, in homes, and in outpatient clinics. I received my Masters of Social Work from LSU and have received training in treating individuals with a trauma-informed and strength-based approach.
My treatment style is an emphasis on the mind-body connection. I will often draw focus back to the body as well as identifying harmful thought patterns and core beliefs. I use a combination of Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Ultimately, you are the driver in your mental health journey, and I am here to assist.
In our first session, we will gather background information and what has led you to taking this first incredible step in receiving help. We will set treatment goals and discuss expectations of what a session will look like. Then, we can begin the work of where you want your mental health journey to take you. I hope to cultivate an environment in sessions of openness and authenticity. This is a space of vulnerability and trust as well as where acceptance and change can occur.
