I work with adults and teens! Do you or your teen feel overwhelmed, anxious, or depressed? Are you trying to push through each day only to feel like you're exhausted and not moving in the right direction? I want you to know, I'm here to help! Finding someone that's a good fit and asking for help is the first step in your journey to feeling better. It’s my belief, everyone should have a place where they feel safe and supported while processing their life stressors. Whether it be anxiety, depression, grief and loss, trauma, life transitions, or relationships difficulties.
I have experience working with adolescents and adults. I have worked inpatient hospitalization, partial hospitalization and outpatient therapy. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy and EMDR.
It's my hope, whatever your reason for seeking help at this time, together we can create a useful experience for you in a safe comfortable environment. My role is not to give advice but to assist while you navigate on your own unique path. I’ll work with you along your personal journey! If you have any questions just ask! Send me a email or give me a call!
