About
You may find you're walking through a difficult season of life. But whether you feel sad, stuck, anxious, lost, afraid or just tired of trying to figure things out on your own; I really love the process of walking with people through difficult transitions or as they are stepping into new changes in their lives. I am passionate in working with those who suffer from anxiety, depression, are who are in the middle of life transitions (such as grief, loss of pet/dream/job, moving), and/or are working through their mental health wellbeing in the context of work and career.
My therapy work is through an Integrative modality, leveraging techniques from CBT, ACT, and Mindfulness. I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help those who feel stuck and haven’t seen progress with other talk therapy methods. I work with adults and adolescents, specializing with women in their 20's-40's.
I would love to meet with you to help you with whatever you find your struggle to be. Whether that is a new job, starting a family, or graduating (to name a few), I would be honored to hear your story and work with you, to help you move from feelings of surviving, to feelings of thriving.
