I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with adult clients to improve anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and self-worth. I have a background working with anxiety disorders such as Generalized Anxiety, OCD, Social Anxiety, Agoraphobia, Specific Phobias, as well as Depression, workplace stress, and Adjustment Disorder. I use various therapeutic modalities to support my clients in making meaningful life changes.
In our first session we will discuss what brings you to therapy, what you can expect from therapy and what you can expect from me as your therapist. We will also complete a psychosocial assessment that gives me a better understanding of your past and current state of being. We will get to know each other and set your individual goals.
I believe my greatest strength is cultural humility, which allows me to hold a nonjudgmental environment while viewing my clients as sole individuals. I also consider my ability to empathize and sympathize with my clients as a great quality and strength.
I use CBT to help patients connect how thoughts influence our emotions and behaviors
I use DBT to help patients become more in touch and aware of how to identify and regulate emotions
