Hello! I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist committed to supporting individuals and families on their journey toward healing and growth. My therapeutic approach is rooted in the belief that everyone is inherently valuable and deserves to be heard and treated with dignity and respect. I strive to create a non-judgmental, compassionate space where clients feel safe to explore their thoughts and emotions. I prioritize honoring clients' legal rights to confidentiality and fostering an environment of trust and collaboration. I aim to build a strong therapeutic alliance, empowering clients to navigate challenges, develop resilience, and achieve personal and relational goals.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Our initial session will begin with brief introductions to establish rapport and create a comfortable space. From there, we’ll explore the specific challenges you’re currently facing, allowing me to understand your needs and goals better. This collaborative discussion will help us develop a personalized plan to guide our work in future sessions, ensuring our approach is tailored to address your unique circumstances.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My greatest strengths are fostering a safe, empathetic, and non-judgmental environment where clients feel heard and understood. I excel in active listening, which allows me to grasp the nuances of each client's experience. My adaptability ensures that I can tailor interventions to meet the unique needs of each individual or couple I work with. Additionally, I bring a strong foundation in evidence-based practices, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and trauma-informed care, ensuring that my approach is both practical and client-centered. Finally, my commitment to continuous learning enables me to stay current and provide the highest standard of care.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I have extensive experience utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as a structured and evidence-based approach to addressing a range of psychological concerns, including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and maladaptive behavioral patterns. My practice incorporates CBT techniques to help clients identify, challenge, and restructure unhelpful thought patterns contributing to their emotional and behavioral difficulties.
