I am a Licensed Professional Counselor as well as a Board Certified Music Therapist and love being able to bring any creative arts into sessions. I can't wait to meet you on your journey towards healing!
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
I believe therapy is a collaborative journey and my role is to provide a safe space for you, whether that is problem solving or a more in-depth look at what is going on. I believe in holistic treatment and individualized treatment.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I draw from a variety of techniques including CBT, DBT, and Adlerian. For trauma I have participated in a variety of trauma trainings including Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics, Brainspotting, Polyvagul, and TF-CBT.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
