Counselor, LMHC

It takes strength to admit that life has become unmanageable, that your previous ways of coping are less effective than they use to be. The first step to healing is acknowledging that those negative thoughts and feelings have been impacting your ability to lead the life you want. The next step is to ask for help. While asking for help can be overwhelming, I provide clients a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental atmosphere in which to explore their path to healing. I offer a strength based and person centered approached to treatment. I will work with you to meet you where you’re at and help you reach your wellness goals.

Thursday AM telehealth availability! E-mail is the best method for reaching out...Hi! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with years of experience in 1:1 therapy and group therapy (CBT, DBT & Mindfulness). I work with clients on how to cope with stressful/traumatic events, automatic negative thoughts, dysregulated emotions and self destructive behaviors by mindfully teaching the therapeutic techniques of CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy). During therapy clients will identify triggers, reframe negative self depreciating thoughts and implement healthy behavioral outcomes to create personal changes that last.

Regardless of the times, the circumstance or the individual, building a relationship with trust, value and efficacy matters. I also believe that this can look different for everyone. Given that, it is important that prior to finding the right therapeutic approach that meets your specific needs, we must first develop a mutual understanding and rapport with one another that feels supportive in moving forward. Next, it will become my responsibility to listen and understand what it is you would like to address and what your goals are. Your voice, experiences, and perceptions will lead us through this process.

We will work together to develop measurable goals and objectives to help you as you navigate the road ahead. I utilize a strengths-based approach, relying on evidence based interventions that work for you. No two people are the same and therefore therapy should not be either.

My approach to therapy is focused on building a trusting relationship with the individuals I work with. Attending therapy for the first time can be a scary and a vulnerable experience, but my aim is to provide a safe and welcoming place for one to talk about their concerns. I strive to create a space that feels safe, grounding and compassionate. From this space I believe individuals can improve coping skills, communication skills, improve relationships, establish healthy boundaries, set goals, decrease levels of depression and anxiety along with much more.
