I believe seeking help to overcome difficulties in life is a sign of immense strength. We all face challenges, big and small, and sometimes we need someone to walk with us through those tough times. My role as your therapist is to meet you where you are in life and provide a safe, nurturing environment free of judgement, for you to work through any challenges you may be facing while providing appropriate coping skills to conquer those issues. It is essential to remember that seeking help is not a sign of weakness or failure, but rather a courageous step towards personal growth, resilience, and well-being!
I love helping individuals dealing with issues like anxiety, depression, substance use, relationship issues, stress management, self-esteem, and trauma/abuse. I have 2+ years of experience utilizing a variety of therapeutic modalities including CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused therapy. I utilize a person/client centered approach!
I am here to support you on your journey to becoming your best self and living a more fulfilled and happier life! Feel free to contact me at my email or phone number provided.

I work with clients who may be struggling with anxiety, depression or trauma related to their past relationships and childhood upbringing. During the first sessions, we will create a plan to address those issues in healthy ways. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within a few months and sustained improvement thereafter.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we explore what brought you to therapy and decide the best course of action to help you on your healing journey. With CBT, we look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and behaviors. With DBT, we utilize mindfulness and emotion regulation techniques for healthier coping.
