Finding a therapist can be overwhelming and I’m glad you’re sticking with it. As a therapist, I specialize in working with ADHD, those who have experienced trauma, the queer community, medical professionals. I value honesty and collaboration in the therapeutic process. I feel it is important for you to know and be educated about your mental health. I want you to have a clear understanding every step of the way. My goal is to create a supportive environment where you can feel empowered to explore your challenges, discover your strengths and build resiliency within yourself.
I work from an integrated approach, meaning I use a variety of interventions that work for you as what you need can vary from session to session. While I am here to help you as you are, it's also important for me to help you move forward to reach your goals. It's about balancing where you are and where you want to be.
TL;DR - I work with trauma, ADHD, medical professionals and the queer community. I focus on educating and helping you in a way that works best for you.
