Clients can expect to start with an introductory session where they can share their story and what they hope to achieve in therapy. Together we can cultivate an individual journey to meet each clients goals. I am a working mother and know the struggle it is to balance work and mom life. I am a member of the LGBTQIA+ community to meet the needs of those managing challenges in one's sexuality and stigmas. Additionally, I understand the dynamics of the military culture to help those serving and have served our country.
I am direct with those I encounter and I have experience working with individuals who are struggling with balancing work and personal life. I work from a client-centered approach that encourages my clients to be active in their therapeutic journey. I am certified in CBT, TFCBT, and DBT.
I have a vast of experience working with clients who are struggling with childhood trauma, underlying anger, life transitions and adjustment, parenting, grief, anxiety and depression. My experience includes working with adolescents and teens in foster care, community crisis outreach and triage, private practice, and providing clinical supervision.
