I believe Irvin Yalom said it best when he said we need to form a unique therapy for every person. We are all unique, our relationships and experiences are unique, and in therapy we need to find your own path forward in life. We can find that as a conversation between two experts, you being the expert in your own life, and me being an expert in this field. Together, we can work to help you find what you are looking for in therapy. Whether it is a skill and action motivated plan, or a space to emotionally process things regularly, or anything in between.
I am able to serve adults with a wide range of mental health concerns. Primarily, my background and expertise mostly lies in trauma, depression, anxiety, and substance use disorder. I also have a background in research, with two publications in peer reviewed journals.
I think the best way to figure out if I would be the right fit for you, is to give me a call. I offer free 15 minute consultations to talk through options and feel out if it would be a good fit.

I primarily pull from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, EMDR, CBT, and Motivational interviewing. That being said, I think every person is unique and has unique needs, so therapy for each person will look differently, and I will pull from those listed sources, or other sources if needed to provide the needed/requested services.
