My mission is to help promote healing from within, as well as emotional support, and behavioral change. As humans, we can get stuck in the past or future. As a truly empathetic, genuine, and nonjudgemental clinician, I can provide you with a safe environment to explore and process the nature of your issues that may be keeping you in a state of suffering. I have experience working with children, adults, couples, and families. I am trained in techniques effective with issues including mood disorders, emotional disturbance, family conflict, behavioral disturbance, anxiety, and many other issues affecting your everyday life. I have a special interest in experience working with trauma, sexual abuse issues, and PTSD. Using Trauma-Focused CBT, I can help clients acknowledge experienced trauma without negative symptoms attached. I accept multiple insurance plans and will work with you to find an appointment time that works with your schedule. Please call with any questions or to schedule your first appointment.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In my first session we will learn more about each other. I will gather information about what brings you in, how your childhood was up until now has been, and gather information about your current symptoms and goals. We will formulate your diagnosis, which is required for insurance purposes, as well as formulate your treatment goals. In the following session I will front load you with coping skills and psychoeducation that we will practice together so that you become well equipped to utilize the skills on your own. We will process things from the past and present and create new pathways for you to continue to use the skills on your own in the future.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My clients have described me as empathetic, supportive, genuine, "real" and down-to-earth. I am very unique and might cringe when I have to say, "How does that make you feel?" I pride myself in helping provide you with help to heal and not just to listen. I have a lot of experience working with all types and want to make sure progress is made. My goal is to help you gain strength and to be able to endure life's challenges without suffering.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have been extensively trained using CBT, Trauma Focused CBT, and Rapid Resolution Therapy which incorporates CBT to help clients quickly resolve suffering impacting daily functioning. I am very empathic but hands on in my duty to provide clients with skills and am interactive rather than just an active listener. My goal is to help clients understand how our thoughts impact out mood and behaviors. We can challenge our thoughts using multiple cognitive skills that will help promote improve mood, perspective, and functioning. I use empathy and genuine regard to relate with my clients so that the therapeutic practice is not strictly business.
