Starting therapy can be very overwhelming. Congratulations! You've taken the first step. I believe everyone should have a space where they can share without judgment or fear. I use a client-centered approach and strive to provide a supportive, empathetic environment for everyone. I specialize in childhood trauma, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem. Together, we can navigate the challenges that life has brought you and help you achieve the goals you are reaching for.
I work with teens and adults who are navigating the effects of childhood trauma, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and other stressors in life. Together, we can identify coping techniques that help you through challenging situations and develop a plan that will support your growth and development.
I provide an open, non-judgmental space for you to share. I utilize active listening and encourage you to be your authentic self in our sessions. I am often described as warm, kind, and easy to talk to.
