"The struggle that you are in today, is developing the strength that you need for tomorrow." Let's face it, life is far from easy, so if you are someone who is struggling with day-to-day living and finding it difficult to overcome the challenges and curveballs that life seems to throw at you, then let's work together to regain the strength that you already have within you. I am a therapist who specializes in working with individuals between the ages of 12-30 that struggle with anxiety, depression, anger management, unresolved past trauma, stress, grief/loss, relationship issues and lack of social and communication skills.
I provide a warm, encouraging, empathetic atmosphere and use a collaborative approach to work with you. I use a variety of various interventions, such as EMDR, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and multiple other therapies and techniques to meet each client’s individual needs.
As your therapist, my goal is to provide you a safe space where you feel comfortable and help you get to a place where you can work towards healing and say good-bye to anger, sadness, fear and anxiety and say hello to peace, hope, love and joy. If you are ready to take the next steps, please reach out to me so that we can walk through this journey together.
