I am a seasoned therapists who places significant amount of importance on developing a therapeutic relationship. My skillset includes a whole person approach that covers both physical and emotional well-being. I utilize primarily Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Mindfulness. In addition, I utilize my certification in Health Coaching to ensure physical aspects are addressed that may be impacted your mental health. I have never narrowed my practice to a specific diagnosis; however I do find that I work a lot with Depression, Anxiety, Relationships, Co-Dependency, and Weight Related Diagnoses.
