I am a partner at Leek Therapy. Daytime Telehealth openings available. Making the decision to begin therapy takes courage. Perhaps you are looking to gain perspective, find tools to help cope with anxiety, explore your thought patterns, or delve into personal topics that have been weighing you down. The goal is to emerge with confidence, strength, and perspective in order to handle what challenges may come your way.
I have been working with children, preteens, teens, and adults in individual and family settings for 10 years. My approach to therapy is trauma informed, strengths-based, and person-centered. In my practice, I strive to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and in control of the path you'd like to take in your healing journey.
I invite you to reach out to see if you would like to work together to create a plan for you to achieve the goals that you have, whether it be to feel more present, connected, and grounded in this busy world, or something else entirely that we identify together!
