I strive to meet people where they are and offer honest feedback for change while providing a non-judgemental space for all. The decision to start or return to therapy can be difficult and I am glad you are taking the first step. I have dedicated the last 20 years to the Social Services field and have provided therapy since 2018. Whether you are looking for short- or long-term therapy, I look forward to helping you during your journey.
I firmly believe you are the expert in your own life. While I am well versed in many theoretical frameworks, including Motivational Interviewing, Trauma Focused, Strength-Based, and EMDR, I will work with you to tailor services to find the ones that best suit your needs and personality.
If you are looking to work through significant life events or traumas, wanting to gain insight into work, home, or social challenges, or struggling with depression or anxiety, together, we will come up with a plan of action to get you toward a path of balance, growth, and renewal.
