My ideal client is someone who has a vested interest in their own well-being. A client who is open to building an authentic and trusting therapeutic relationship that empowers and acknowledges their strengths. My focus is on what the client brings, and my work is to support them during their transition. My speciality is working with those who suffer from anxiety, imposter syndrome, and those who are struggling with life stressors resulting from life transitions. My style is empathetic, nonjudgmental, direct, and honest. I believe you are the expert on your own life.
My preferred therapy practice is Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). This practice is effective in helping people manage their overwhelming emotions. My goal is to help you recognize your own inner-light and healing capacities so you can experience living beyond, limiting beliefs and patterns that have been holding you back.
I see counseling as a partnership; Where we join forces to explore, create, and trust that healing is possible. Together we can set a new course of direction tailored specifically for YOU! Let's get started!

I often use Dialectical Behavior Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With DBT, we'll look at how your emotions affect your behaviors and; the relationship you have with yourself and others.
