Great to meet you!

I have a very calm and nonjudgmental tone. My goal is to create a safe space for clients to process their thoughts and feelings. Working with me can feel like a “breath of fresh air”. I want each client to leave a session with me feeling at ease.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy varies based on the needs of my client. Each therapy session is individualized. I utilize a strengths-based approach, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and motivational interviewing techniques to assist my client with processing their feelings.

What you can expect from me

Rapport building will the focus of our first session. I want to learn more about you so that I can be the best therapist for you.
