Many people can say they have experienced a point in their life where they would benefit from support: whether it's with a personal goal, challenges with people in one's life, or facing some kind of obstacle that life has thrown their way. I'm here to support you while you face the challenges you are struggling with by providing new perspectives, gentle challenges, practicing communication and coping skills, and giving encouragement through your journey.
I use a strength-based approach in working with clients, meaning I start where you are in identifying your needs and wants out of therapy. I use cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical-behavioral therapy (DBT) to help you identify and reshape helpful and unhelpful thoughts that impact your behaviors and emotions, and to strengthen your skills.
I prioritize clear, open communication to facilitate a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and offer opportunities to reflect on your experiences. If we’re working through something challenging, you can expect me to be honest while being calm and patient. If it is something I think will be difficult for you to hear.
