I strive to create a warm, supportive environment where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
First session
You can anticipate a welcoming, secure, and supportive atmosphere conducive to building rapport. We'll discuss your concerns, significant issues, and objectives you'd like to address during therapy.
Strengths
I bring a calm, warm, and compassionate presence to each session. I strive to create a safe, welcoming, and nonjudgmental space where clients feel comfortable exploring difficult emotions, experiences, and behaviors at their own pace. My person-centered approach thoughtfully integrates evidence-based, trauma-informed therapies, including EMDR, CBT, and DBT, to support each client’s unique needs and goals.
Ideal clients
I may be a good fit for individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, life transitions, stress, low self-esteem, or difficulty feeling understood. I welcome those who may feel overwhelmed, disconnected, uncertain about their next steps, or ready to create meaningful change in their lives. Whether someone is beginning therapy for the first time, returning during a difficult period, or continuing their personal growth, I work collaboratively with them to develop meaningful and achievable goals.
Treatment methods
Person-centered (Rogerian)
In my practice, I strive to create a warm, welcoming space where you can feel comfortable being yourself. I believe you are the expert on your own life, and we’ll work together at a pace that feels right for you. With empathy, openness, and without judgment, I’ll support you as you explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences, recognize your strengths, and identify goals that feel meaningful to you. Our work will be tailored to your unique needs and preferences so you can feel heard, respected, supported, and empowered throughout your therapeutic journey.
