(she/her)
I have worked in the behavioral health field for over 23 years, starting in psychiatric rehabilitation and social services. In 2020, I transitioned to program administration and clinical services. I have six years of direct clinical experience working with diverse populations. I am an eclectic therapist who uses many counseling and psychology theories and types, including humanistic, cognitive behavioral therapies, solution-focused therapy, executive skill building, trauma-related therapy (DBT and IFS), person-centered, Gestalt, and other evidence-based approaches. Interventions are tailored to a person's needs and preferences.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, disclosures, and then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
I am an eclectic approach therapist that provides a safe enviornment using humanistic concepts and also outcome-based interventions. I believe in helping people and promoting wellness through acceptance not just "treating symptoms."
