There are many reasons why someone might want to come to therapy. Are you feeling sad, worried, irritable or angry most of the time? Maybe it feels hard to regulate your mood. You may have experienced trauma. You could be going through a difficult time in your life due to stress, grief or life changes. Your relationships with your friends or responsibilities at school might feel overwhelming. You could be an athlete that feels stuck or has a mental block. Any of these situations can leave you feeling lonely, stuck or hopeless. I am here to help provide compassion, hope and trauma-informed care.
I use a strengths based, person centered approach in my work with clients. Using several therapeutic techniques, I will help you explore issues and develop solutions in an environment where it is safe to be vulnerable. I have worked extensively on issues of anxiety, depression, trauma and issues related to probation.
Taking care of yourself is important. Your mental health matters. I look forward to working with you on your journey to reach your goals in a judgment free zone with support and compassion. Feel free to email me for the quickest response to get started!
