New to Grow
I am a dedicated therapist with several years of clinical experience supporting individuals in their personal growth and healing. My own experience in therapy has deeply shaped my approach, helping me better understand vulnerability, resilience, and the change process. This lived insight allows me to show up with empathy, authenticity, and a genuine commitment to supporting meaningful, lasting growth in my clients.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In the first session, we focus on getting to know you and what brings you to therapy. I’ll ask about your goals, background, and any current challenges while also answering any questions you may have. We’ll begin building a comfortable, trusting space and start identifying what you’d like to work toward together.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My strengths as a therapist include building strong, trusting relationships with my clients and creating a safe, supportive space for growth. I prioritize the client–therapist relationship as the foundation of meaningful change. I’m also flexible in my approach, tailoring sessions to meet each client’s unique needs, pace, and goals.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
My ideal client is someone who is committed to the therapeutic process, willing to be hands-on in their personal growth, and open to exploring new ways of thinking, being, and doing. They are motivated to actively engage both in and outside of sessions; value self-reflection and skill-building; and are ready to challenge patterns to create meaningful, lasting change in their lives.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I utilizes CBT to help clients identify and challenge maladaptive thought patterns impacting emotions and behaviors. Treatment includes cognitive restructuring, behavioral interventions, and skill-building to improve coping and functioning. Emphasis is placed on skill application outside of sessions and relapse prevention.
Compassion Focused
This is on teaching clients how to respond to themselves with kindness, understanding, and emotional regulation, rather than harsh judgment. Interventions often include mindfulness, compassionate imagery, and skills to strengthen a sense of safety and self-soothing.
Eclectic
I focus on tailoring interventions to best support the client’s goals, symptoms, and preferences rather than using a single fixed approach. Treatment may integrate modalities such as CBT, DBT, ERP, somatic-based interventions, and humanistic approaches to provide individualized, comprehensive care.
