As a counselor it is my goal to create a safe, collaborative, and supportive environment where individuals feel comfortable sharing their struggles, and empowered to reach their goals. I provide therapy for adolescents (11+) and adults. I utilize a holistic approach to counseling that considers the whole person including emotional, psychological, physiological, and other environmental factors to help you create and reach your individual goals. I offer support, guidance, and structure so that clients can feel empowered to discover personalized solutions within themselves.
I believe counseling is not a one-size-fits-all experience. I utilize Person-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to support people with anxiety, depression, body image struggles, disordered eating, and life transitions. I am also committed to helping clients build healthier relationships with food, body, and the people in their lives.
As your counselor it's my goal to hold space for you and support you in creating a life you are proud of. Therapy can feel challenging and uncomfortable at times, so as your counselor I want you to feel safe enough to express your thoughts, feelings, and concerns with me. I hope to build a therapeutic relationship based on mutual respect and trust.
