I work with clients who may be struggling with depression, anxiety, grief, trauma or difficulties in their relationships. During our initial sessions, we will talk about why you are seeking therapy and collaborate together on your specific goals.

In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy. I often use an eclectic approach to therapy, tailored to your specific counseling needs. These can included CBT for help in identifying negative thought patterns and how to reframe them, IFS for parts mapping and DBT to help teach handling distress and revisiting situations more calmly and logically.
