About
Hello there! As a therapist, I am warm, open, encouraging, and direct. I consider myself an active therapist, combining experience, education, creativity, and sense of humor with a down-to-earth, realistic approach to counseling. I provide a safe space for clients to express themselves honestly, get to understand their true feelings, and working together to figure out how to use that information towards a journey of healing. I specialize in working with young adults and adults struggling with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, mood disorders, trauma, stress management, life transitions, and health/wellness. I utilize a variety of therapeutic approaches and treatment modalities catered to each client’s needs. These include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), IFS (Internal Family Systems), Mindfulness Based Therapy, Solution-Focused, Strengths-Based perspective, and EMDR.
