Great to meet you!

10+ years working with different populations with varying ages and needs. Most recently my clientele includes individuals working through life transitions, depression, anxiety, Borderline (BPD), PTSD, and grief/loss. My work is grounded in first creating a safe place for processing, goal setting and mindfulness skill building, all while imparting hope for change. With encouragement, I believe individuals have the ability to take control, channel their strengths into progress, grow their resiliency, and reconstruct their life trajectory. Whatever is causing you distress, current or past trauma, let's journey through it together.

Life transitions and uncertainties can bring fears or determination - it's all about mindset. I invite you to make the mind shift today. Take the first step to living a FREE and fulfilling life. Let's explore the possibilities together. Flourish with me.

My approach to therapy

My eclectic approach includes Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Positive Psychology, Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), and trauma informed practices. Treatment is tailored to the unique needs of each Client, emphasizing their strengths. Clients will acquire skills for resiliency and tolerating hardships, empowerment to withstand

What you can expect from me

During our initial meeting we engage in a clinical interview. I will ask questions about various areas of life (education, family. physical health, relationships, career, etc.) to help inform treatment planning. Your safety is of great importance, so share as much or as little based on your comfort.
