I’ve learned a ton from four years in community mental health - I’m not going to judge anything you bring to session! This gave me a foundation in crisis intervention, anger management, identity shifts, relationships, trauma, and substance use disorders.

I’m a fan of motivational interviewing, and I’ll affirm your thoughts and feelings often. I also give space to challenge thought patterns or behaviors that aren’t in line with your values. I love finding out what makes you feel like you and supporting all that that includes!

I think therapy is a great space to discuss what is working and what might be challenging in life. I’ve found approaches such as ACT and DBT to be natural for me with ACT’s focus on values and DBT’s ability to be learned on a psycho educational level.

I also don’t judge decisions, thoughts, feelings, behaviors, or you. I’m a big fan of non-judgmental stance and am proud of the work I’ve done to stay compassionate.

I treat first sessions as a time to discuss what you expect out of therapy. It’s a great time to mutually build a foundation and understanding of where you want us to go.
