I am a Licensed psychotherapist and board-certified coach with 12+ years of experience treating, supporting, and empowering individuals, couples, and families as they achieve their desired goals. I utilize various treatment modalities, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Accelerated Resolution Therapy, and collaborative therapy. I offer this in group or individual settings. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, families, and/or individuals in the following areas: Grief, depression, PTSD, parenting, peer, professional, and intimate relationships.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I am a licensed professional with additional certifications in treatment techniques such as DBT and EMDR I am a board-certified coach with a specialty in mind, body, and wellness. My lived experience, as well as my 10-plus years in service, have provided me with a well-informed and grounded approach to treatment

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

If the client requires a higher level of care than outpatient therapy on a weekly basis, this may not be a suitable approach to getting help. The client who is able to manage his/her day to day needs and correspond and communicate would be a great fit for talk therapy. The client who is seeking therapy due to a threat of a loved one may not be ready to start the journey The client who can be open transparent and willing to commit to consistent appointments is the client who will have the best outcome.
