Great to meet you!

Hello and welcome! I understand the decision to go to therapy can be overwhelming, yet here you are. I use an integrative approach that is tailored to you. I've worked with various areas that include anxiety, panic, trauma, stress management, existential crises, pregnancy loss, relationships, attachment, life transitions, divorce, and occupational stressors/performance. I have training in CBT, Interpersonal Psychotherapy, DBT, and Gottman Couples Therapy that informs my approach.

My approach to therapy

My approach is client centered and I will meet you where you are in a nonjudgmental and safe space. You are in complete control. My approach is fluid and flexible, so in the process of exploration if you feel your priorities change we can redirect to meet those needs. Whether it be to process trauma, increase self-esteem, manage anxiety, increase communication skills, or identify negative relationship patterns or attachment, we will work through it.

What you can expect from me

We address negative core beliefs, low self-esteem, attachment styles, communication, and coping skills. Our goal together would involve identifying ways of coping and understanding limiting beliefs that interfere with day to day functioning. My goal as your therapist is to ensure you are in control of your journey every step of the way. I want you to feel empowered to make the changes you feel are necessary to live a life that is fulfilling and meaningful.
