I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with a Master’s Degree in Clinical and Counseling Health Psychology and 19 years of experience helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, and stress. My approach integrates evidence-based modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness, and trauma-informed care. I offer a supportive, nonjudgmental space where healing and growth can happen. My goal is to help you build resilience, improve emotional well-being, and make meaningful, lasting changes in your life.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, we’ll focus on building a comfortable, supportive connection where you feel safe to share openly and be yourself. I’ll take time to understand what’s bringing you to therapy—your concerns, goals, and any challenges you’re currently facing. We’ll also explore your personal history to help me better understand your unique story and the context of your experiences. I’ll explain how therapy works, answer any questions you may have, and introduce some therapeutic approaches that may best support your needs. From there, we’ll begin crafting a collaborative plan designed to guide you toward healing, resilience, and meaningful, lasting change.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
As a counselor, one of my greatest strengths is creating a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel genuinely heard, valued, and understood.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
If you’re feeling burdened by past trauma, overwhelmed by anxiety or depression, stuck in cycles of negative thinking, or simply exhausted by life’s challenges—you don’t have to face it alone. There is a path forward. Together, we’ll create a safe, compassionate space where healing and growth can begin. My goal is to support you in feeling seen, heard, and empowered as you take meaningful steps toward lasting change and the fulfilling life you deserve.

EMDR
I have extensive experience using Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as a powerful tool to help clients work through trauma, anxiety, and deeply rooted emotional distress. In my practice, EMDR allows clients to access and process difficult memories in a way that reduces emotional intensity and promotes healing at the core level. I guide clients through each phase of the EMDR process—beginning with preparation, identifying target memories, and using bilateral stimulation to support reprocessing—at a pace that feels safe and manageable. Whether clients are working through single-event trauma or complex, long-term patterns, EMDR has consistently helped them experience greater emotional clarity, reduced symptoms, and a renewed sense of empowerment and resilience.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
With years of experience using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I’ve seen how powerful this approach can be in helping clients identify and change unhelpful thought patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, and emotional distress. In my practice, I use CBT to help clients make meaningful connections between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Together, we work on developing more balanced thinking, building healthier coping strategies, and challenging the negative beliefs that often keep people stuck. Whether we’re addressing self-esteem, emotional regulation, or stress management, CBT provides a structured, evidence-based framework that empowers clients to take an active role in their healing and create real, lasting change.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
I have extensive experience incorporating Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) into my work with clients who struggle with intense emotions, relationship challenges, anxiety, and trauma-related symptoms. DBT offers practical, skills-based tools that help clients develop emotional regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness. In my practice, I use DBT both as a structured framework and as an integrative approach, tailoring the skills to each client’s unique needs and goals. Whether we’re working on navigating conflict, managing emotional reactivity, or building greater self-awareness, DBT provides clients with tools they can use in real-time to feel more balanced, in control, and connected to themselves and others
Trauma-Focused CBT
In my experience, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) has been a highly effective approach for helping clients—particularly children, adolescents, and adults with trauma histories—process and heal from painful experiences. I use TF-CBT to guide clients through a structured, evidence-based process that integrates cognitive behavioral strategies with trauma-sensitive interventions. This includes psychoeducation, relaxation techniques, affective regulation, and the gradual processing of traumatic memories in a safe and supportive environment. I tailor the approach to meet each client’s developmental level and emotional readiness, helping them build resilience, shift unhelpful beliefs, and restore a sense of safety and empowerment. TF-CBT has been a vital tool in my work with clients experiencing PTSD, grief, abuse, and other trauma-related concerns.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
I regularly incorporate mindfulness-based therapy into my practice as a powerful tool to help clients manage anxiety, depression, trauma, and emotional dysregulation. Through years of experience, I’ve seen how mindfulness can support clients in developing greater self-awareness, emotional resilience, and the ability to respond—rather than react—to life’s stressors. I integrate mindfulness techniques such as breathwork, grounding exercises, body scans, and present-moment awareness into sessions to help clients reconnect with themselves and create space between their thoughts and emotions. Whether used on its own or in combination with approaches like CBT, DBT, or EMDR, mindfulness supports clients in building a calm, centered foundation for healing and lasting change.
