If you are feeling stuck in your everyday life and are looking for the chance to change, you are not alone. As a therapist, I am here to help you overcome feelings of anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. I utilize elements of cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, and mindfulness to target your thoughts/feelings and find coping skills to change them. My primary concern is for you to feel good about yourself from the inside out. In order do this, I provide clients with an opportunity to work on themselves through a strengths based, collaborative, goal focused approach.
I believe therapy is beneficial for personal growth and confidence. I will also work with you to find the root cause of your thoughts and behaviors, with the goal of understanding why you function the way you do, and to try and view yourself in a more gentle and positive light.
I know starting therapy can be scary which is why I have dedicated my practice to helping every client feel safe and comfortable sharing their story. When working with me you will feel seen, heard, and understood. Through our work together you will gain a new perspective on your life and will be able to be the best version of yourself and live more freely.
