I am happy that you are here. Seeking out support or making a change can be intimidating and oftentimes daunting. However, with the right support and tools, it is my belief that anyone can make the changes that they desire to lead a more fulfilling life. As a counselor, it is my role to provide a space to do so and listen through a lens of compassion, empathy and understanding as to just how difficult life can sometimes be. Together, we can address life’s challenges, develop therapeutic tools, identify and alter unhelpful thoughts/coping mechanisms and work towards creating a life that you’re proud of.
I use a variety of therapeutic approaches, but I lean most heavily into Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I believe in the power of healing through dialogue and processing. I have most recently worked within community mental health, supporting folks of all ages and backgrounds.
Therapy is a collaborative process and I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and empower you to make the changes in your life that will allow it to be more fulfilling.
