Whether it's your first time in therapy or not, the aim is to develop more effective ways of addressing life's challenges, and exploring your strengths and values to help you make meaningful changes to your life. I seek to create a collaborative, safe, and nonjudgmental space for clients to explore their thoughts, emotions, and lived experiences.
I take a holistic person-centered approach to assist clients in managing depression, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, and alcohol/substance use. Through cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectal behavioral therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) we'll focus on practical solutions while also building self-compassion and empowerment of self.
I believe as humans we have a natural tendency to collaborate. Throughout life, some of our collaborating tendencies are muted due to negative experiences, as your therapist it's my goal to assist you in re-establishing a connection to self that will allow you to connect with your outer world in a way that feels authentic to who you are.

I often utilize cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and acceptance commitment therapy (ACT) in my practice. With CBT and ACT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences while utilizing ACT to cultivate skills that foster self-compassion and resilience when experiencing discomforting thoughts and feelings.
