I am a firm believer that the success of a therapeutic relationship can be determined within the first two sessions. A strong alliance between the practitioner and client is essential for the success of treatment. As such, I place a strong emphasis on creating an environment that fosters comfortable conversation, safety, and openness between us as partners in the therapeutic process. By doing so, and allowing conversation to flow naturally, I believe that a more authentic alliance can begin to develop. I adhere mainly to cognitive behavioral theory to serve as the backbone for the therapeutic techniques that I employ.
I work well with adults and teens across various stages of their respective mental health journeys. I have interest in continuing to work with adult client populations experiencing moderate to severe anxiety, depression, obsessive and compulsive symptom presentation, as well as trauma and substance use.
I seek to foster and develop an open and welcoming environment, one in which I hope the clients that I work with can feel more comfortable in discussing that which they find most difficult at any time. The therapeutic alliance is a priority for me in my work, and I view treatment through a collaborative lens, in which I work with you as a partner.
