You’ve lived your life, and you know what’s worked and what hasn’t. My role is to meet you where you are. Life is complex, and no single approach works for everyone—which is why the relationship between you and your therapist is so essential. Using a Rogerian, client-centered approach, I provide a nonjudgmental, safe, and supportive space where you feel heard and accepted. Together, we’ll explore your experiences, understand what they mean to you, and build the skills you need to reach your goals.
I'm a firm believer in fostering a collaborative atmosphere, where my clients actively engage in the therapeutic journey. I highly value the unique insights and perspectives that clients contribute from their own life experiences. Within our sessions, I offer a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space, where we concentrate on nurturing your goals.
At Lifebulb our clients get the highest quality therapy services because we're building an organization that truly allows therapists to get back to enjoying their work. We offer flexible hours, both in-person and telehealth, accept most major insurances, and hire only licensed providers. Visit our website to book online or call us now. We're ready to help!
