My clients are adults, (LGBTQ+) with anxiety, depression, eating disorders, substance abuse, and family and relationship challenges. I can appreciate clients who want to heal & improve their lives. They are willing to make the necessary changes to build inner strengths, increase feelings of empowerment, implement boundaries and learn to Trust vulnerabilities in healthy relationships. Learning to make behavior changes so that they heal and find peace and joy.

My approach to therapy

In sessions to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, stress, worthlessness, and suicidal ideations, I incorporate Positive Psychotherapy, Humanistic, Strength Building exercises, CBT, DBT, Narrative therapy, and Relaxing Meditation Mindfulness techniques. Together, we set Collaborative goals and work toward them with coping tools, humor and spirituality.
