My goal in therapy is a simple one, and that is to help people get exactly where they want to go in life. Sometimes that means working through past traumas or current stressors. It can also mean focusing on general life optimization. Whatever your goals, I strive to create a non-judgmental environment for us to dig deep and make forward progress together.
I feel lucky to have found effective, evidence-based practices in both Cognitive Behavioral and Solutions Focused Therapies. Bringing these skills and perspectives to my clients is what drives my practice! I specialize in Addiction, Depression, Anxiety, Stress, Relationship Issues and I have significant experience doing mental health crisis work in an emergency department setting.
For me, therapy is about making progress on our goals and in life. I utilize specific and measurable goals in an effort to guide treatment and to ensure we are on the right track. Sessions sometimes include hand outs and homework when appropriate. I especially appreciate working with people who may never have imagined themselves in a traditional therapy session.
