I'm here to help. Life has many challenges with all the emotion, even fears and worries that come with them. Navigating through stress, anxiety or low mood is something we all do at one time or another, but sometimes it helps to have some assistance in that process. Our goal in therapy is to improve your coping skills and overall well-being. With that, I am a firm believer in the need for an individualized journey in therapy as opposed to a one-size fits all cookbook approach. This is about you and your life. It's deeper than some technique or strategy. Therapy is founded on the relationship we build and the dynamics of it.
On the upside, it's not just about coping through the hard times, but finding a way to build on the good times as well. I like to help clients tap into their unique strengths and then use them to overcome the challenges life is presenting. From there, a lot of my clients like to develop skills such as emotional regulation and self-compassion.
I use supportive CBT to assist clients in meeting their goals for the future, problem solve in the present and sometimes even heal old wounds. Accepting the challenges life brings and even finding meaning and purpose in the journey is an important component of this process. Call or email me if you have any questions.

The majority of my practice is devoted to helping individuals with emotional regulation, anxiety/stress management, and relationship issues through the lens of complex trauma. Our first session will involve me getting an overall picture of you, your life, relationships, and some of the factors which may be contributing to current difficulties. Then we'll plan from there on next steps.

In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy. From there, every journey is different. What works for one, may not work for all. Having a safe place to talk and explore from that foundation of trust is paramount in the journey though, no matter what your individual story is. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is typically the method of choice.
