Great to meet you!

I believe in a client-centered approach, combining holistic and evidence-based modalities tailored to each individual. Recognizing that people are equal parts nature, nurture and the surroundings in which they live is a priority of mine, as no two people endure the same sets of circumstances. Moving forward consists of recognizing where a person is at that time, as well as crafting the space to assist them on the path to where they would like to be in order to have a better quality of life.

My approach to therapy

I am trained in EMDR and utilize additional clinical modalities including DBT, CBT, mindfulness and solution focused therapy. I primarily work with both adults and adolescents. I have extensive experience working within the mental health field and very much enjoy drawing attention to the silver linings and redeeming qualities that often go overlooked by the individuals seeking therapy services.

What you can expect from me

I pride myself on working diligently with clients in setting actionable goals to promote a sense of hope and direction.
