Starting therapy can be scary and nerve-racking. I commend you on beginning your journey, and I am here to make sure you get the quality care that will work for you. I work with individuals (children, teens, adults, seniors), couples, and families to assist in navigating your past and current life situations to lead to a more positive future. I welcome you to reach out when you are ready to begin this journey in a safe and supportive environment that will allow you to be open, honest, and most of all, yourself.
Have you been struggling with anxiety, depression, self-harm, or negative thoughts? I work with individuals from children to older adults to help manage these areas. I will assist you in working through trauma, ADHD, relationship issues, LGBTQ support, grief, using coping skills, and even reaching your personal goals.
I will ensure that you can have open communication that is supportive and non-judgmental. I practice active listening while having a patient and empathetic approach. You can always expect me to be engaged, calm, and to prioritize clear and open communication.
