Managed by Rula Health. Your call or email may go to a representative.
Often, starting therapy can feel overwhelming. I congratulate you on taking the first step to improving your life. I specialize in working with adults of all ages navigating life transitions, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, self-esteem, addiction, LGBT+, and Gender. I take a client-centered, collaborative approach to therapy, and I’m here to provide a safe and supportive environment where you can be yourself and work to better your circumstances.
I use an integrative approach in therapy using different modalities to help you identify and reshape unhelpful processes that may be impacting your life. This approach is tailored to you and will help you develop tools to feel more in control of your emotions, behaviors, and circumstances.
You can expect clear, open, and respectful communication in a supportive, non-judgmental environment when we’re together. I practice active listening and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences with me as an empathetic partner.
