You're not alone, and you can count on my support. Together, we can tackle challenges, surmount obstacles, and achieve the goals you've set for yourself. Many have faced setbacks while seeking support and may feel hesitant to try again, but you're important, and you deserve a life filled with joy and fulfillment. Occasionally, happiness seems elusive, and we may feel adrift or uncertain. Sometimes, we know the solutions but require assistance in embracing them. I'm here to aid your healing and growth. Together, we'll cultivate skills that uplift and motivate you. Remember, you're deserving of this journey. I can't wait to meet you!

I apply a multi-therapeutic strategy using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and humanist approaches. First, we discuss concerns and goals and we'll tailor the most effective strategies to meet them. Through CBT, we'll examine the interplay between thoughts, emotions, and actions and MI will help us uncover motives and cultivate techniques to improve functioning.
