I usually find myself working with people who know there's something not quite right but aren't sure where to start. Are you struggling with anxiety and depression, and don't know why? Are relationships difficult, or do you feel like you haven't found your people? Has life suddenly just switched to "hard mode"? I especially enjoy working with people who are trying balance work and managing chronic illnesses, fellow social services employees, and LGBTQ+ clients. I love working with neurodivergence!
My number one goal is to help you find a sense of safety and calm, so you can see your way clearly. I am trained in a variety of skills and modalities, including CBT, IFS, motivational interviewing, and EFT. I most often use DBT skills with IFS and trauma-informed care principles to help people understand themselves, set boundaries, and choose their path.
I'd love to chat about what you are looking for in therapy, our first call is free. I have 12 years of experience in mental health, and 7 doing therapy and resources. I am kind of a nerd, so I have lots of training! Please reach out to me even if your insurance is not listed, or you're not sure how you can pay for therapy, I can help you figure this out.
