Seeking help can be difficult and finding the right therapist is key. Each individual is unique and deserves individualized treatment. My primary goal is to offer a safe and caring environment in which each client is treated with dignity and respect. Therapy sessions are a collaborative process and are aimed at empowering clients to better understand themselves.
I have specialized experience in working with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, and adjustment. My approach is eclectic; utilizing person centered, cognitive behavioral, and trauma-informed therapies.
I believe in meeting each client where they are and helping them to achieve their personal goals. Start your journey of self-exploration and healing today!

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
