I have been a clinician in the mental health field since 2018. I have worked in a variety of different settings including inpatient, outpatient, and residential units. I have experience working with a variety of issues such as anxiety, grief, trauma, depression, domestic violence, and sexual assault. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to treat emotional disturbances. I also specialize in working with the LGBTQIA+ community. I offer a safe space for my clients to identify what their goals are and together we'll work toward making positive changes in their lives. How do you envision your life? Let's work together to get you there.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
During the first session, clients can expect to discuss relevant background information, current symptoms, and goals for treatment. We also use this time to get familiar with each other and start to build rapport. Therapy can be an intimidating process to start, so as your therapist it is my own personal goal to create an environment in which you feel comfortable to share about yourself.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I mostly use CBT and DBT skills to treat symptoms of anxiety and depression..
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My niche is working with clients of the LGBTQIA+ community and offering a space of non-judgment and acceptance.
