Hey, it's really great to meet you, and thanks for checking out this profile. I've been working at this since about 2010 and I've found that one of the best ways to really help people is to just be a person with them.

But don't get me wrong, I will definitely challenge you and help analyze what's happening so we can take steps toward growth. I use an eclectic style, primarily built up of cognitive-behavioral, mindfulness-based, and problem-solving techniques.

My counseling style is warm, empathetic, and collaborative. Together we will examine the areas you'd like to focus on in therapy and establish goals. I will ask for your active participation and introduce tools to help you reduce symptoms, build more positive thinking, and establish lifelong skills. I use a TEAM-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach and integrate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction methods into my practice.
