It is my belief that offering my clients a nonjudgemental, warm and safe platform is priority. I feel that safety with a clinician can facilitate comfortability, which lends to growth throughout the therapeutic process. I value building connections with my clients and offer an unconditional positive regard. I place initial focus on identification of contributing factors to symptoms and behaviors. Additional attention is placed on assimilation of healthy coping strategies and altering of maladaptive thoughts.
I specialize in working with children, adolescents and women. I understand that the phases of development and life transitions can be stressful and isolating. I believe that there is no life or parenting handbook that is a fit for all. I am here to aid my clients in finding their comfortable balance.
Life is a journey filled with highs, plateaus and lows. It is my pleasure to stand by my clients and support them through their moments of distress, growth and end goal of personal fulfillment. It is often helpful to have a safe place that is neutral to explore our most vulnerable feelings and thoughts. It is truly my pleasure to offer such support.
