Great to meet you!

I appreciate your courage for taking the first steps to change. With almost 15 years of experience,4 years licensed, I am here to help you navigate daily stressors, depression, anxiety, and life transitions, through motivation and encouragement. My goal is to create a safe supportive environment that will allow you to express yourself freely and move towards personal growth.

My approach to therapy

I use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help identify and transform unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. My approach is collaborative, together we will build skills and tools to help you feel more empowered and in control. I may also use other techniques (holistic approaches, solution focused) that will support your goals and personal growth.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, it will be a chance to get to know each other and discuss what brings you to therapy. We will be identifying the goals you would like to work on. Though therapy can be intimidating, we will move at your own pace, I will be there to support and guide you throughout.
