Have there been times when you felt sad, angry, worried, or unsafe out of nowhere? Have you ever had difficulty putting your thoughts and feelings into words? You are not alone. I work best with adults who feel overwhelmed with life, have difficulty with relationships, and struggle with fluctuating moods to discover what is happening, the root of these occurrences, and ways to heal in the present moment.
My approach to therapy is to meet everyone with genuineness, empathy, and acceptance. I believe you are the expert of you and I will support you in achieving your mental health goals. I often use a combination of approaches such as CBT, DBT skills, and Mindfulness to support you in achieving balance and safety in your life.
The first step towards change is the hardest. I applaud you for your bravery in seeking support during this difficult time. You can have the future you hope and dream for. It is within your reach. Visit my website to schedule today. I look forward to meeting with you!

I work with clients who have a hard time understanding and managing their emotions due to past and present day life stressors. During our initial session, we'll discuss your unique experiences, what you hope to gain from our time together, and create a plan to work towards this. Most of my clients experience relief within the first month and continued improvement thereafter.
