My name is Larissa and I have been working in the field of mental health for over 10 years. I obtained my masters degree in education, which specializes in mental illness and addictions counseling. Throughout my career I have worked in various mental health settings including outpatient, inpatient, residential, medication assisted treatment, as well as within the department of corrections.

I use a blend of approaches, drawing from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), positive psychology, narrative therapy, solution-focused therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and attachment theory.

Therapeutic approaches aside, my main goal is to create a safe place for clients, to meet them where they are, to help clients feel valued, heard, understood, and empowered.

My hope is that clients can leave sessions feeling a little lighter, valued, seen, empowered, and motivated to be the best version of themselves.
