I work with clients who experience depression, trauma, and/or anxiety mostly. This can have a negative impact on their personal or family relationships. I give my clients a platform to discuss their concerns and areas they want to address in therapy. Then we talk about their goals and how therapy will help reach them, potential challenges along the way, and outcomes and timeframes for treatment.

I use Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Trauma Focused Therapy, and Strength's Based Therapy in my practice along with other therapies such as Internal Family Systems. I tailor each client's treatment to meet their specific needs and often combine different therapies. We will take a look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. Then, we will focus on successful coping strategies.
