I strive to make the therapeutic environment a safe, comfortable place for my clients. I believe that treatment differs for each individual and I want to make sure I am catering the treatment towards the needs of my clients. I believe in celebrating the little victories and continuing to learn from them.
I have experience working with individuals who have struggled with mental health and substance use concerns. I have completed trainings in Military and First Responder treatment. I am able to assist individuals through grief and loss, difficult decisions, self-esteem and boundary problems, anxiety, depression, anger, substance use and traumatic events.
In regard to treatment modalities, I am well versed in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. I believe that treatment should be individual based and catered to the specific needs of my clients. I enjoy learning and continue to attend trainings on different therapeutic techniques.

When it comes to working with clients who struggle with addiction and mental illness, my approach is a harm reduction approach. During our initial sessions, we will begin to explore the issues at hand and create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back to how you would like it. We will work together to ensure that the plan is tailored to your specific needs.

I often use a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach in my practice. In your first session, we will explore what brought you to therapy and decide together the most appropriate ways to help make progress. With CBT, we will explore how one's thoughts affect emotions and experiences. When it comes to substance abuse, I often will use a harm reduction approach, while celebrating one's victories.
