The path to health and wellness is different for each of us. Having a safe space to process our experiences and emotions can be the pivotal turning point we need to gain the satisfaction, and fulfillment we so desperately crave. While every journey is unique, the desired goal is generally universal: implementing meaningful change toward a deeper awareness of ourselves as we navigate life's challenges. Together, we can find your path and walk it together. My therapy style is reflective, warm, and attentive, as you and I work together to determine the best course of action that will illicit the changes necessary to reach the desired outcome.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a widely used approach in trauma-informed care that focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns and behaviors associated with trauma. In my experience, I have found that CBT helps clients understand the connection between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, allowing them to develop healthier coping mechanisms. By creating a safe and supportive environment, I can facilitate discussions that empower individuals to process their trauma and work towards recovery. Overall, my use of CBT in trauma-informed care likely emphasizes collaboration, respect, and understanding, fostering a space where clients can heal and grow.
