I believe that each client brings a unique set of strengths and skills that can be uncovered and mastered in their healing process. My role is to walk along side you and support you in this process. My approach is to blend evidence-based and strength-based therapies, all while working with you to create an individualized treatment plan to meet your goals.
I offer a safe and inclusive space, with a commitment to LGBTQIA+ affirmative therapy and a deep understanding of the challenges faced by families of military members and first responders.
Life is this beautiful, chaotic, and sometimes painful experience we are all gifted with. When we encounter moments life becomes difficult due to one thing or another, it is important to find a pathway of peace, hope and strength through our challenges. It often helps when someone—a professional person with a background supporting people who are looking for a way through.
I am an empathetic, nonjudgmental listener. My aim is to create a nurturing environment that allows you to be heard so we can create a treatment plan. Supportive therapy and complementary alternative strategies will be used in conjunction with medication management to aid your recovery to a better you.
In my practice, I provide individual and family therapy that blends holistic principles and evidence-based practices with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
I am a client-centered strengths-based therapist. I have experience working with children, teenagers, families, couples and individual adults from all walks of life. I meet you where you are at in life. I have a passion for helping others and offer a compassionate, safe space to help you work towards positive change. My work from a strengths-based perspective helps you recognize your strengths. Your strengths are how you have managed life as you know it. We will work together towards a solution that feels best to you. I believe we are all stronger than we know and sometimes things just get in the way. We can take time to understand the patterns that have been created in your life. While we can’t change the past, knowing your story can help you move forward. Understanding these influences in life can help you to resolve things that may be holding you back, keeping you from reaching your goals.
For those grappling with the challenges of depression and anxiety during their formative years, there is hope and assistance available. Together, we weave Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy into a cohesive strategy tailored specifically to you. We cultivate a supportive environment that fosters growth and self-discovery by challenging negative thoughts, uncovering intrinsic motivations, and focusing on practical solutions. My mission is to guide my clients through the turbulent years of adolescence and young adulthood, empowering them to rewrite their narratives, transform struggles into strengths, and cultivate resilience and self-compassion.
