Licensed Professional Counselor
·MA, LPCC, LADCAbout
Do you want to feel better about yourself, feel more secure in your relationships, and learn to better tolerate uncertainty and discomfort? Life brings challenges and uncertainty that may leave us feeling disconnected from ourselves and those around us. I believe therapy can help in facing, addressing, and overcoming the challenges that we’re presented with. I help others with challenges relevant to addiction, anxiety, relationship struggles, self-esteem concerns, and trauma. I currently work with folks ages 15 and up. I am trained in EMDR. I use a lot of mindfulness and existential approaches to help others explore themselves and find meaning in their lives. I also believe it’s important to have tools that can provide more immediate relief, so I incorporate CBT and DBT skills, as well. I recognize that initiating therapy can also be a challenge, and I want to make that process as smooth as possible. I show up to work with a relational, person-centered approach, meaning I will meet you where you’re at and take time to forge an authentic relationship with you. I strongly believe that humor and curiosity go a long way and value your feedback.
