Warm greetings to the Grow Therapy community! My journey in professional counseling began in 2019, leading me to work with diverse populations facing co-occurring disorders. I hold a Master of Science in Licensed Professional Counseling from Grand Canyon University and a Bachelor of Arts in Creative Writing. I specialize in supporting clients with depression, anxiety, PTSD, trauma, self-esteem issues, personality disorders, substance use, and eating disorders. I also assist with career challenges, parenting issues, and codependency. My approach is holistic and trauma-informed, drawing on therapies such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Therapy, and Narrative Therapy. I focus on empowering clients to better understand and regulate their emotions, reframe negative self-narratives, and develop healthier coping mechanisms. I incorporate mindfulness practices to help clients stay present and grounded, while Narrative Therapy encourages them to reshape their life stories, leading to greater self-awareness and healing. In trauma-informed care, I ensure that clients feel safe, supported, and understood throughout their healing process. My goal is to provide tailored, needs-based care to help clients navigate their challenges with clarity and confidence. I aim to offer a compassionate, understanding space where you can feel empowered to achieve the outcomes you’re seeking. In my personal life, I enjoy spending time with family, our pets, and exploring the outdoors. Writing and photography are my creative outlets, allowing me to express myself and stay connected to the world around me. I look forward to connecting with you and supporting your journey toward growth and healing!

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In your first session, we’ll focus on building rapport and understanding your goals. I’ll ask about your history, concerns, and what brought you to therapy. Together, we’ll create a comfortable, non-judgmental space to explore your needs, set objectives, and begin developing a personalized treatment plan.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

As a provider, my greatest strengths lie in my ability to create a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space for clients. I blend evidence-based practices like DBT, CBT, Mindfulness, and Narrative Therapy to meet the unique needs of each individual. My trauma-informed approach ensures that clients feel supported while exploring challenging emotions. I’m skilled at helping clients build emotional resilience, improve self-awareness, and reframe negative thoughts. Additionally, I foster strong therapeutic relationships by actively listening, validating clients' experiences, and empowering them to achieve their goals for healing and personal growth.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I am best positioned to serve adolescents and adults who are navigating a range of emotional and psychological challenges. My approach is tailored to each individual, considering the unique developmental needs of both age groups. Adolescents, in particular, are often facing identity formation, social pressures, and emotional regulation struggles. For them, I provide a supportive environment where they can explore self-esteem, peer relationships, academic stress, and family dynamics. Using a combination of DBT, CBT, and Mindfulness, I help adolescents develop coping skills, manage emotions, and build resilience during this critical phase of life. For adults, I specialize in working with those dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues, as well as individuals facing career challenges, codependency, and parenting struggles. I support clients who may feel overwhelmed by life transitions, such as career changes or parenting, and those working through unresolved trauma or PTSD. Through a trauma-informed approach, I ensure that each session is a safe space where clients can heal without judgment or re-traumatization. I integrate Narrative Therapy, helping adults reframe their life stories and shift negative self-perceptions, fostering empowerment and personal growth. I am also experienced in working with individuals struggling with personality disorders, substance use, and eating disorders. My skills in DBT and mindfulness help clients with emotion regulation and distress tolerance, enabling them to manage impulsivity, build healthy relationships, and find balance. Ultimately, I’m passionate about guiding both adolescents and adults toward a better understanding of themselves. My goal is to provide compassionate care that helps clients identify patterns, break cycles, and develop lasting, positive change. Whether you’re an adolescent navigating growing pains or an adult facing life’s challenges, I am committed to walking alongside you on your journey to healing and self-discovery.
