Finding the right therapist for you is so important; please feel free to give me a call so we can see if we’d be a good fit! I provide trauma-informed individual and couples therapy to adolescents and adults of all genders, and specialize in working with survivors of sexual and domestic violence. In order to begin the difficult work of exploring your emotions and understanding yourself, you need a safe and understanding setting. For this reason, the emphasis of my therapy is on creating an empathic and nonjudgmental space for you to talk about the things that feel too overwhelming to experience on your own.

I use an integrated approach that combines behavioral and psychodynamic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT); Brief Psychotherapy; Behavioral Activation, Emotional Focus Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Trauma Focused Treatment.

I work with young adults, adults across the life span and couples facing relationship conflicts. I also work with individuals and family members affected by substance use and co-dependence issues. I am a compassionate, empathetic and non-judgmental, with over 15 years of experience helping others. Each client is different. I begin with a thorough assessment, and then together, my client and I tailor a treatment plan of action.

If you are seeing this message, I am proud of you and know it is not easy for you (and/or your child) to be in this stage of life. Working with youth up to 18 years, the typical concerns my clients (and caregiver) express are behavioral challenges, attention difficulties, low self-esteem, interpersonal issues, mood, anxiety, trauma, family concerns and life cycle transitions. Therapy can provide assistance understanding emotions, behaviors and creating an emotional toolbox (coping skills) that they can access at times of distress to manage their symptoms.

I believe in the power of consistent support and structure to guide clients on their journey towards healing and self-discovery. We're plugged into a fast paced world where we are bombarded with issues when we have responsibilities of our own. We go to war with our emotions and thoughts which makes it hard to tend to what excites us. When our minds are constantly running, it can feel impossible to be engaged in the present moment let alone dig deeper. I place a strong emphasis on emotional processing, anxiety management, and the exploration of feelings related to dependency and fear of loneliness.

We all want to be genuinely seen, heard and understood. Whether the pain stems from the past, major life changes or simply feeling lost, therapy is a safe place to express your feelings without the fear of judgement. It is an amazing way to partner up and connect with someone who will support you. In these difficult times, it is important to find someone who can hold space for you to help untangle the web of confusion that may exist within. I aim to create a safe, warm and therapeutic atmosphere. You will be met with someone with a genuine desire to understand and who strongly believes that there is always hope.

Mental health affects every single person in their own unique ways. Clients that are looking for therapists are looking for someone that treats them with the respect and dignity that they deserve, and see them as their own unique person. Clients that come to me are looking to achieve their goals, overcome the obstacles of life, and want someone to listen and acknowledge what they are going through. I aim to be the stable object in my clients lives.

We all tell stories to and about ourselves. The stories we tell can empower us, and sometimes we find that our stories do not serve us. At its core, therapy is a safe space for you to tell your story. As a licensed clinical psychologist, I value the story each person has to tell. My compassionate and non-judgmental approach allows me to collaborate with you, to understand your experiences and where you may be feeling overwhelmed or stuck. I will support you in the process of gaining insight, in order to facilitate meaningful change. I strive to build a strong bond with my clients, to help you feel more at ease within yourself.

Hello! Taking the first step into therapy can be a difficult one, and I want to commend you for taking that first step. We all face many different stressors in our lives. Between work, school, our friends and families and other relationships, it can become overwhelming to deal with it all. As we learn and grow, we may also discover new emotions or parts of ourselves that we are unfamiliar with, or we may recognize issues and struggles we have pushed off for far too long.
