I am a firm believer in "one shoe does not fit all" which is why I use an eclectic approach with my clients. There will be days where one therapeutic approach may benefit you more than another or sessions where multiple approaches will be used. Improving your quality of life is the priority and I feel the best way to reach that is by tailoring each session to meet your specific needs. In sessions, you can expect a collaborative approach including preference assessments to target presenting concerns. My schedule is very flexible so let's pick a day and time that works best for you! I look forward to hearing from you!

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

Psychoeducation is a big part of my treatment, the more you understand your "why" naturally the intervention window grows.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

I use EMDR, CBT, DBT, SFBT, and PCT in my sessions.

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

I specialize in trauma and approach it with the intent to explore it first. How does it show up in you? What triggers it? What about right now situations activate it? This approach is similar to how we would explore other symptoms as well.
