I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a background in community mental health. My work is rooted in evidence-based treatment approaches, and I have completed training in grounding skills for dissociation, introductory IFS, and support for individuals in the LGBTQIA+ community. I provide trauma-informed therapy to adults and specialize in anxiety, relationship challenges, and stress-management.
My approach in sessions is warm and empathetic, with gentle challenging to promote awareness of patterns that are making you feel stuck. I value building trust and creating a safe environment so you can feel seen and supported as you share your stories. I promote self-compassion and often encourage clients to explore challenges with curiosity.
My goal is to provide you with a non-judgmental space where you can be your authentic self. I often ask my clients what they are needing in sessions to ensure that we focus on what matters most to you. I will work to understand your specific goals so that we can collaboratively come up with a plan for therapy and help you build tools that allow you to feel more in control.
