We are all going through our own struggles, and it is natural to want to find some kind of relief from what we are going through. Too often though, we frequently find ourselves back at square one over and over again wondering why this keeps happening. Mental Health counseling offers us a chance to try and understand our stress, the meaning behind our symptoms, and allows us an opportunity to finally get unstuck.
I work with clients through compassion, humor, and unconditional positive regard. Whether it’s through straightforward honesty or easing through difficult topics with a gentle approach, I can provide a style of therapy that best fits you and your personality within the therapeutic styles I practice.
My areas of expertise include psychotherapy, alcohol/substance abuse, and relationship issues and I utilize aspects from numerous evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Psychoeducation. If you have any questions or want to connect, please feel free to reach out!
