Welcome! I understand that navigating the impacts of trauma and other mental health concerns alone feels overwhelming. So it is my goal to build a strong and supportive therapeutic relationship that empowers each individual to build emotional resilience, heal past trauma, and gain a deeper understanding of their experiences. Through this process, I aim to help you achieve improved overall well-being, foster strong relationships, and ultimately find greater fulfillment in your life.
My education has focused on trauma-informed approaches, as well as treating personality disorders, self-harm, and domestic violence. In my practice, I use an integrative approach, to include aspects of Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and attachment theory to meet your unique needs.
Seeking support is a courageous first step, and by taking it you have already made significant progress. If you are ready to take the next step, I would be honored to partner with you on your healing journey. Please feel welcome to reach out with any questions, schedule an appointment, or to arrange an initial consultation.
