Hello and congrats for taking the hardest step in therapy: getting started. You did it! Finding a therapist is like shoe shopping, you know the right fit when you try it.
My goal first and foremost is to get to know you, your perspective, and your strengths. From there we start the work together.
I provide transparency, openness, and a down to earth style that makes talking about difficult topics more approachable. I often use analogies and metaphors to frame our conversations in relatable ways to let you leave the session feeling like you gained something.
My specialties include working with depression, anxiety, mood disorders, trauma, personality disorders, individuals in the criminal justice system, problem solving courts, and more. I work with individuals 14 and older along with couples. I use CBT, DBT, EMDR, and others. I often focus on interpersonal relationships, strengths, and emotional patterns.
My favorite part of therapy is looking back to our first day and realizing the progress we can make one step at a time. It may seem like a lot right now but progress is closer than you think.
