My ideal client is justice-involved, often court-mandated, struggling with trauma, substance use, or severe mental illness. They need stability, structure, and emotional regulation. Their goals are to meet legal requirements, reduce recidivism, and improve their mental health. They want to regain control of their lives, often to reconnect with family or secure housing/employment. They seek support, even if reluctantly, because they’re tired of the cycle and want change. If this describes you, then I'm here to walk with you on your therapy journey.
I use evidence-based approaches like CBT, Mindfulness, Person-Centered therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to meet clients where they are. I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore experiences, build coping skills, and foster self-awareness—supporting change, emotional regulation, and value-aligned goals.
I know change can feel overwhelming, especially when life has been full of challenges. You're not alone. I'm here to listen, support you without judgment, and help you take the next step at your own pace. When you're ready, I'm ready to walk with you.
