As individuals progress though life, therapy can be a vital component to navigating challenges, increasing self-understanding, and reducing unwanted psychological symptoms. Utilizing a strength-based and solution-oriented approach combined with traditional therapy techniques, I provide personalized psychotherapy and coaching to assist each individual in achieving their goals. I believe in a comprehensive treatment approach to create healthy change and assist clients in envisioning the future they desire.
My areas of strength include mood and anxiety disorders, problems with adjustment or life transitions, relationship struggles, student challenges, grief and loss, substance abuse, self-care, trauma, spirituality, body, health and wellness issues.
In addition to traditional psychotherapy, I also provide wellness consultation to assist in defining personal strategies to overall life satisfaction. Examples of wellness goals include stress reduction, organization, weight loss, career change, sobriety, increased focus, maximized performance and mastery of other life challenges.
