Have you been considering seeking help from a mental health professional? Or maybe you’ve decided to give therapy another try. The foundation of an effective therapeutic relationship begins with finding a therapist with whom you have a good fit and connection. I will meet you with compassion and empathy, while also guiding you towards self-exploration and increased awareness. I believe that we navigate life and view the world through a lens influenced by our society and culture. I will support you in your process of becoming more of the person you want to be and help you commit to actions that align with your desired goals.
I utilize a holistic approach; integrating humanistic, cognitive-behavioral, and acceptance based therapies. My goal is to provide a safe, therapeutic space to help you explore and let go of behavior and thought patterns that no longer serve you while also guiding you in making desired changes; moving towards a life of joy, self-compassion & self-acceptance.
I have experience in treating adults & adolescents with a range of mental health and medical challenges, including sexual trauma, anxiety/depression, relationship stress, self-esteem, chronic pain & insomnia. If my approach resonates with you, contact me for a complimentary 30-minute consultation to see if I may be a good fit or to ask any questions.
