With over a decade of experience as a licensed therapist, I've worked in varying settings with diverse populations. My specialty areas include anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, and relational issues with family, partners, and friends. I'm also dedicated to serving the LGBTQIA+ community. As your therapist, I believe you're the expert of your own life. Together, we'll work collaboratively to identify changes you'd like to make and develop a personalized plan to achieve them. My job is to help you see the changes that are possible. My hope is that when you leave our sessions, you'll feel supported in continuing on your journey.
Having been in therapy myself, I understand the daunting task of confronting the parts of ourselves that we've long suppressed or hidden away. My approach is built on creating a safe, non-judgmental space where you can be yourself, without fear of criticism or rejection. Together, we'll explore innovative strategies to achieve your goals.
As a compassionate guide, I aim to empower, affirm, and validate my clients throughout our collaborative journey. By incorporating approaches such as CBT, solution-focused, and person-centered methods, I help you unlock your full potential. Together, we'll identify and implement effective interventions, develop coping strategies, and cultivate self-care.
