When the world around us seems to be changing very quickly and in unexpected ways, we may begin to experience fear, worry, dread, anger, and even defeat. There are no unsafe subjects in therapy. I can offer you a safe place to examine and process your thoughts and feelings. I will empower you to find your peace in the midst of chaos, through empathic listening and solution-oriented feedback.
With nearly 20 yrs of experience working with diverse populations in various settings, I have supported individuals challenged with degrees of trauma, complicated grief, mood, cognitive, and substance use conditions. I enjoy working with individuals that are curious and courageous in self exploration as they seek to live life more richly.
At the conclusion of our session, you will leave knowing that you have a voice in your plan of care, with increased personal insight, and confident in our work together.
