My approach is holistic, focusing on you as a whole person and working to identify the source(s) of a problem in addition to reducing symptoms. Together, we will take a look at your thoughts/beliefs, feelings, and behaviors; identify any problematic patterns; and begin to change those patterns to be more useful and constructive. We will also work on developing coping skills to help you feel better and build confidence and resiliency for facing life's challenges and stressors.
I specialize in working with adults with a variety of mental health, trauma, addiction, and interpersonal issues. I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), which is an evidence-based therapeutic approach for treating trauma. We will work together to come up with a plan that meets your specific needs.
Whatever your aspirations, I want to help you achieve them. Therapy is hard work, but you don't have to do it alone; we'll work together to get you where you want to go. Your future self will thank you!
