I work well with clients undergoing a variety of trauma and personality disorders. I approach treatment in an individual and personalized manner utilizing feminist and analytic therapy. The most appropriate client is one who is open to finding their answers and healing in a calm, self-paced environment free of discrimination and judgment. All clients have the ability to eventually become their own therapist and I am prepared and eager to help you find the strengths that are sometimes very difficult to see. I am a lead examiner and offer full spectrum assessments for diagnostic purposes to include ADHD and autism.
I specialize in disorders based in trauma such as PTSD and complex trauma, obsessive compulsive disorder, and borderline and avoidant personality disorders. I work with a variety of solution-based CBT and analytic psychology depending on the needs of the client. I also offer full spectrum diagnostic assessments covered by insurance with little to no wait.
I offer a space free of judgment and discrimination, and work with only the client and the stigma faced by those undergoing issues with mental health. To find out more of my work regarding mental health, trauma and stigma, you can also view my professional site at Healthy Strides, LLC.
