I enjoy working with diverse individuals experiencing a variety of life stressors including life transitions, complex trauma and child/adolescent social and emotional issues. I believe that everyone can change, yet most don’t have the tools to do so. Early childhood experiences shape the way we see the world, ourselves, and others. We can often go through life without acknowledging our unhealthy, subconscious thoughts until we start to recognize harmful patterns in our lives. Bringing emotions such as fear, shame, and insecurities to the light will keep them from taking root any further.
I work through a cognitive behavioral, trauma informed and attachment lens. My hope is that I would provide a safe space for you to process your emotions, thoughts, and experiences and explore the truth, which in turn leads to freedom and empowerment. I am deeply passionate about helping you navigate through life’s challenges.
I am honored that you are considering therapy with me. Taking this step towards healing can be scary. I deeply empathize with my clients because it can be difficult to address experiences that we have covered up for a long time as well as the emotions that surface because of it. I would be honored to walk alongside you in your journey!
