Have you been feeling stuck and unable to see a path out of the place you currently find yourself? I am client centered and focused on meeting you where you are. My approach is authentic, mindful and centered on you. I can help you process emotions, set boundaries, and find positive ways to feel good about yourself. I hold space for you to share your concerns so you can begin the process of healing.

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

During our first session, we will just talk about what you need to talk about. You can't do therapy wrong. Your first day, you get to talk about you and whatever you need to talk about. I will hold space for you and partner with you. Together, we will find out how we can best support your current needs.

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

I am a proud supporter of women and Queer community. Whether you're dealing with stress, facing a life transition, or simply need someone to talk to, I'm here to provide consistent support and reassurance. I do long term supportive care. I will see this through with you. We are going to get through this together.

My treatment methods

Strength-Based

As a licensed therapist, I use Strength-Based Therapy to help clients manage mental health conditions by focusing on their inherent strengths and resources. In we identify past successes and clients build on their strengths through positive reframing. We can find out how your weaknesses can actually be your superpowers. There is a focus on maintaining gains and leveraging strengths for future challenges. This approach fosters resilience and long-term positive change, improving mood, self-esteem, and overall quality of life.

Supportive

My goal is to offer a non-judgmental, compassionate environment where you can freely express your thoughts and emotions. I'm here to actively listen and validate your experiences, helping you build on your strengths to manage stress and navigate life's challenges.

Person-centered (Rogerian)

In my practice, I believe you are the expert on your own life. My role is to hold space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings. I'm here to support your journey of self-discovery, helping you tap into your inner resources and potential. By fostering an environment of unconditional positive regard, I encourage you to trust in your own ability to make meaningful changes allowing you to navigate life's challenges with greater confidence and authenticity.
