I work from a research-based approach to therapy, focusing on education, skill-building and evidence-based interventions such as EMDR. My approach is goal-oriented and helps clients move quickly through their "stuckness".
I primarily approach therapy through the lenses of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. My approach to healing integrates genuineness, empathy, validation, humor, and unconditional acceptance. I emphasize a collaborative approach to help clients identify their own unique goals and values, personal strengths, and abilities to implement the change they want. I also work with clients to challenge counterproductive behavioral patterns, address negative thoughts, and foster acceptance of unavoidable life factors that contribute to feeling “stuck” and away from the present moment.

What if you were given the opportunity to rewrite your past? What would you change? What would you keep the same? I believe everyone can take their power back and make way for their own personal growth. In order to grow, we must first find peace in healing. Together, we will utilize Narrative Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you meet your goals and find personal growth. In the beginning of our journey together, we will explore the issues that you would like to address to create a purpose driven and safe environment for us to unpack together.

I believe that my clients are the experts when it comes to their lives. This means that my clients have their own standards for what is deemed mentally, emotionally and physically healthy; the ultimate goal being to live as happily and authentically as possible. My hope is that you're willing to share your ideas of what a satisfying and authentic life looks like to you. Yes, people tend to grow through pain and discomfort, but this doesn't have to be lonely or excruciating. I'm here to walk your path with you and help be the light to guide you through. You can expect some humor to bring a bit of levity and fun to the journey, too.

My ideal client is the individual adolescent, individual adult or family system facing challenging experiences and needing skilled guidance getting back to homeostasis. Homeostasis are the needed variables that help regulate the individual and or family system toward stability. I encourage clients to form an alliance with me, allowing safe, and vulnerable therapeutic experiences to occur . Once our alliance is safely formed, we will work interactively, to gain understanding, develop skills and revisit challenges. Challenges that are safely exposed, processed and skillfully revisited, allow self-awareness and self - acceptance to become incorporated into the whole self, increasing the quality of ones' life.

I have a passion for helping others. I have been successfully treating Borderline Personality Disorder as well as most anxiety, depressive, and psychotic disorders. All of these disorders are treatable. Treating BPD is my specialty, having 17 years experience reducing symptoms and improving the quality of life for my clients in both individual and group settings. I have taught the group using the BPD workbook for all of those years and have seen people make tremendous growth in understanding and controlling their emotions. Many eventually graduate from the program and need no further treatment.
