In this journey we call life, we seem to accumulate experiences that make us who we are. From the experiences we develop a story that we tell ourselves. Sometimes telling that story to someone else just doesn't sound or feel right because it can be scary or feel weird. It can be useful to have an editor to help find comfort with the words. Therapy is an opportunity to be truly heard and receive objective, strengths-based, input on how the story sounds outside of your own head. It can provide opportunities to make edits until you feel just right telling your story safely with comfort and confidence.
I have spent years in the mental health field feeling honored to assist people in editing their stories. I provide open-minded, strengths-based, trauma-informed listening as you tell your story, perhaps for the first time. Together we can embark on the dynamic process of writing and/or re-writing until the story comes from a place of health and wellness.
If you've never taken the opportunity to share your story - this is a great place to start. Together, we can confront fear and pain and find a voice that is brave enough to tell the story from a place of courage, confidence, and comfort. Please TEXT 315-303-8035 or email for service inquiries.

I work with all types of clients, but much of the work I do tends to be around managing anxiety and creating a healthier relationship with fears. I have a base in working with people who have experienced trauma that has negatively shaped their lives. Many of my clients are also at a point where they are successfully managing stressors, but need help self-actualizing and building confidence.

To me, therapy sessions are a collaborative conversation. I try to remain eclectic and dynamic in my approach as I don't feel this is a "one size fits all" type of relationship. That said, I find that my theoretical base is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I find it allows you to most easily trace the roots of thought distortions and undesired behaviors.
