In today's society, so many people are living with mental health struggles. There are many triggers we are often confronted with: unemployment, relationships, emotional and physical distress, self-image, social media, stress, and even the news! Day-to-day life stressors can contribute to depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem, and with so much pressure, it is easy to feel trapped, lost, or out of control. So how does one find a path to a healthy, balanced life? I believe one of the most important things you can do is find the right support. Support and community are key to helping individuals overcome the challenges they face.
As a therapist, I aim to help individuals gain insight into what is negatively impacting their lives. My techniques focus on providing tools to help you navigate those peaks and valleys. I use person-centered, solution-focused therapy, CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Strength-based, Crisis Intervention.
Reaching out for help is brave. Taking that first step can lead to a calmer, clearer, more balanced life. You deserve support and a space where you are heard and understood. When you’re ready, I’m here to walk with you at your pace, toward healing and growth. Take the first step by calling 203-785-6222 or emailing Courage Counseling Center, LLC, and ELEVATE.

"
I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In our first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better."
