As a Marriage & Family Therapist, authenticity is key to who I am. I aim to cheer on your victories and, simultaneously, tackle the essential steps toward your goals. I'm committed to meeting you where you are to foster the most effective change. No matter where we begin, my goal is to guide you in identifying the thought patterns and behaviors that block your path to who you want to become. Tailoring my approach to fit each person's unique needs is crucial to your therapeutic success.
As a therapist I will prioritize your needs and goals, I integrate Narrative Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to craft a unique and personalized experience for you and your family. I believe this blend is effective in managing anxiety and depression, enhancing coping skills, and strengthening relationships.
At the end of the day, I want to get to know who you are, as the client. This is your time and your session!
