As a registered professional who began my career as a psychiatric nurse, I value research based approaches and personalized client care in my practice. I work from an eclectic and collaborative approach with each client to ensure that client's feel heard, seen and included throughout their therapeutic journey. I work with kids, teens and adults that have struggled with mental health issues, including psychiatric diagnosis, as well as individuals who have experienced trauma, discrimination, gender identity related issues, and domestic violence recovery.
It's important to me to provide care that is founded in research including being trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotion-Focused Family Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. I highly prioritize continuing education and strive to continue expanding my skills and offering new modalities.
I am currently taking new clients into my practice and offer free consultations to help prospective clients explore if working together would be a good fit. If you would like to set up a consultation to discuss any questions about my practice or how I could help you in your therapeutic journey, please email or call me.
