I have a deep and convicted belief in the power of therapy. I have learned it is a privilege and beautiful honor to sit with clients and hear their story. Everyone's story is important and meaningful. I have learned the connection between therapist and client is essential and can be life altering to someone who may be, or may feel, alone. The need for connection is paramount in our human experience and sometimes it is lacking in our lives. I take this into account with every client, and I offer that connection to my clients. I strive to provide an affirmative, inclusive, and respectful environment to those in the LGBTQ+ community.
As a Certified EMDR Clinician, I help individuals confront fears and process through trauma-related memories. Also, with REBT, CBT and empathy for one's journey, I work with clients to help them understand their childhood experiences and how to change impeding thoughts to help create a happier life.
I have learned that teenagers really need a safe place to be heard and offered a non biased perspective. I offer family session with teens and parents to aid in understanding one another. No matter who you are there is power in being heard and it is pivotal in therapy. I will hear you. I will offer you empathy, and a non-judgmental perspective.
