I have a heart for helping my clients manage the complexities of 21st century stress, heal from trauma, and navigate life transitions and relationship struggles. I strive to nurture healing and growth in a supportive, compassionate, and non-judgmental space. My approach is rooted in creating a safe, welcoming environment where my clients can utilize their strengths to explore their struggles and identify core issues that need attention.
My approach to therapy is integrative, and I tailor my methods to fit the unique needs of my clients. I'm always evaluating what will best serve my clients to make the most of our time together. I often utilize EMDR and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy techniques as well as Gottman Method principles during relational work. I am currently working toward certification in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and am excited to be offering this gold-standard therapy for anxiety and OCD.
The most important goal for early therapy is providing a comfortable space where my clients feel safe to talk about their lives and their challenges. Clients are encouraged to share in therapy as they feel ready. While the first session is an intake with history taking, I strive to make it as comfortable and meaningful as possible.
