Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S), specializing in depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, life transitions, adjusting to life stressors, and grief, using cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness-based practices to assist clients in processing, growing, and healing.

My therapeutic approach to therapy is integrative, using cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and mindfulness based practices, yet varies with application based on the needs of each client.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I have found that my style of and approach to therapy is a great fit for young- and middle-aged adults as they deal with life's challenges and social pressures.

My communication style consists of encouraging clients to view our interactions not as "sessions" but as "therapeutic conversations," while ensuring that they understand our time together is their safe space where they can be their honest and unapologetic self.

What you can expect from our first session

As I approach goal setting a client, I work with you to identify what you would like to accomplish during our time together. Doing this entails building rapport and trust between us, and allowing you to become comfortable with the idea of engaging in therapy.

Our first session focuses on us building an initial connection and helping me gain a sense of the direction we should be headed in for your therapeutic treatment.
