Hey there! I'm glad you've made it. Making the choice in addressing your mental health is the first step to showing up for yourself. I'm sure there have been times where you haven't been able to show up for yourself or you're feeling stuck and always on edge. I have 6+ years of experience in this field, working with various individuals from different walks of life suffering from trauma, relationship issues, anxiety, suicidal ideations, etc. I am prepared to meet you where you're at, work with you to understand how you're feeling, why you feel that way, and where this stems from to alleviate the heaviness that this all comes with.
In my practice I focus on building rapport & getting to know you through asking questions and making connections. Together we will build strategies through evidenced-based techniques to assist you in reducing the intensity, frequency, & duration of your symptoms/experiences impacting your daily life & relationships.
If you are motivated to learning more about yourself, your barriers and strengths, while implementing change, then I think we can work together to make this happen! Send me an email to set up a brief call to discuss your wants, needs, & goals, answer your questions, & ensure we will be a good fit. ONLY accepting Telehealth at this time.
