About

I am dedicated to creating a safe and affirming space for all my clients, where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgment. My approach is grounded in active listening, ensuring you feel heard and understood as we work together on your unique journey. I understand that each person's story is different, and I tailor treatment plans to meet your specific needs, whether you're navigating life transitions, managing anxiety, or working through mood disorders. Together, we can navigate the challenges you face and cultivate the skills you need to thrive. I look forward to the opportunity to support you on this journey. I use EMDR and other trauma focused approaches commonly to help people work through traumas and deeply held negative self beliefs. I have often worked with people who struggle with codependency. I am also proud to be an LGBTQ+ affirming therapist, committed to supporting individuals from all backgrounds/identities. **Credentials & Experience:** I have 5 years of experience in the therapy field with 3 of them being in community mental health where I worked with all age groups and different backgrounds. I also have experience in crisis intervention work with people who have experienced domestic violence and sexual assault.

"It is not uncommon for me to use CBT, strengths based, and/or solution focused approaches in the first session to explore what brought you into therapy. From there we will use the information we have gathered to determine what next step/approach would be best for you dependent on what concerns you would like to address."
