A bit about my approach to therapy

My approach to therapy includes means to explore what are research based means to improve and achieve well being such as Cognitive behavioral, Dialectic behavior Therapy, solution focused, trauma informed and motivational interviewing. I honor your uniqueness and will work with you to identify strengths to work towards helping you achieve your goal(s).

What you can expect from our first session

Therapy can be a safe and secure way to express yourself and explore ways to transform and increase well being. As a partner, we can identify the tools and solutions that will work best for you. I believe while life’s challenges provide us an opportunity to persevere in situations, behaviors may result as a way to meet that need or situation. I work with you, as a partner to help you identify the solutions that will meet your unique and personal needs.
