Psychotherapy is about growth, expansion, and evolution, in addition to healing from painful experiences. Seeking support through psychotherapy as a strength. My aim and purpose as your therapist is to cultivate a collaborative therapeutic alliance meant to empower, foster self-compassion, and promote and motivate change. My enthusiastic and relaxed style encourages clients to address concerns with freedom and non judgement.
I have 14 years of clinical experience in individual and family therapy. I have practiced in many clinical environments including: community mental health, nonprofit, hospital/partial/intensive outpatient, and private practice. I enjoy meeting with adolescents 13 and older, in collaboration with their families. I also enjoy working with adults of all ages.
Just a few common difficulties addressed in therapy are, (but are not limited to) : anxiety, depression, bipolar disorders, OCD, self-injury and suicidal ideation, grief/loss, lifespan transitions, parent-child relational problems, and disordered eating habits. Issues regarding sexual orientation and gender diversity are a particular passion of mine.
