I have a special interest in working with clients suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), survivors of sexual trauma, anxiety, life transitions and perinatal mental health (pregnancy and postpartum mental health). My main goal in therapy is to provide hope to my clients. Specifically, hope that despite life’s continual difficult circumstances, joy, contentment and thriving can still be found.
My therapy approach includes using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as my main treatment modalities. I take a trauma-informed approach to all clients while utilizing the research-based methods of treatment.
I feel honored to walk alongside people in the most difficult times of their life to be there to listen, provide evidence-based therapeutic interventions and unconditional support. I know it can be difficult to ask for help when you need, but I encourage you to take that first step by reaching out. You and your loved ones are worth it!
