My approach aims to empower and motivate my clients towards their desired outcomes. I believe that people can reach their full potential under the right conditions. I hope to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to express your feelings and unpack your story. I value diversity and uniqueness and tailor treatment plans to best fit you as an individual.
My specialty areas include Emotion-Focused Family Therapy, Family Systems, and overall Family Enhancement. I incorporate elements of Person-Centered Therapy, CBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, Trauma-Sensitive Approaches, Motivational Interviewing, and Mindful Based Practices. I use a child-centered, Play Therapy lens when working with children and youth.
It takes a lot of courage to reach out for support. I am thrilled that you have taken this first step to care for yourself. I would love to connect with you and explore some of the ways we might work toward your goals. With warmth, compassion and empathy, my hope is that you can find a safe space to land when we’re together.
