I specialize in helping individuals heal from the emotional wounds that can be created by traumatic experiences. I work with children, adolescents, and adults, meeting my clients wherever they may be in their journey toward healing. My theoretical approach is eclectic, rooted in relational, psychodynamic, and cognitive-behavioral theories. I prioritize being goal-oriented, having a clear treatment plan, and regularly measuring progress during therapy. I value your perspective on our progress and will invite your feedback regularly, as well as objectively measuring progress with standardized psychological measures.
I am certified in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, an evidence-based treatment for children and adolescents who have been impacted by trauma. I am trained in Problematic Sexual Behavior Cognitive - Behavioral Therapy (PSB-CBT), a family-oriented treatment designed to reduce or eliminate incidents of problematic sexual behavior in children.
If you would like to heal from old or new wounds, or would simply like to explore new ways of thinking, I am here to support and accompany you. My work with you starts as a collaborative effort between us to build a secure and affirming relationship. I use warmth, empathy, humor, and our relationship to cultivate mutual trust and promote growth.
