As a therapist, I prioritize the co-creation of a safe and supportive relationship with you, as I believe this is the essential foundation for all therapeutic work. Using a Person-Centered approach, I focus on building trust and understanding, ensuring that you feel valued and heard throughout our journey together. This collaborative relationship allows us to explore your thoughts and feelings in a nurturing environment, fostering genuine connection and openness.

Person-centered (Rogerian)
In my work, I prioritize a Person-Centered approach to therapy, which means I focus on creating a warm and supportive space where you can feel completely safe to express yourself. I believe that everyone has the ability to grow and heal, and my role is to be your partner in that journey. I’ll listen to you without judgment, offering genuine understanding and acceptance as you explore your thoughts and feelings. Together, we can work to deepen your self-awareness and uncover the insights that will help you move forward. My goal is to help you feel valued and empowered, so you can tap into your own strengths and find the solutions that resonate with you.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
As a therapist, I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you harness the power of your thoughts and transform the way you perceive and respond to challenges. CBT is grounded in the idea that our thoughts significantly influence our emotions and behaviors. During our sessions, we work together to identify negative thought patterns and explore how these thoughts may be contributing to feelings of anxiety, depression, or stress. By challenging and reframing these thoughts, you will develop healthier perspectives and coping strategies. This process not only empowers you to take control of your mental well-being but also fosters resilience, allowing you to navigate life's ups and downs with greater confidence and clarity.
Trauma Informed Care
In my therapy practice, I create a warm and supportive space by combining a Person-Centered approach with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in a trauma-informed manner. I believe it’s essential to prioritize your unique experiences and perspectives, especially when considering the impact of trauma on your thoughts and emotions. Together, we’ll gently explore any negative thought patterns that may have emerged from your past, ensuring that you feel respected and empowered every step of the way. By fostering a sensitive and caring environment, I help you develop coping strategies that are tailored just for you, promoting resilience and a sense of safety. This collaborative approach encourages self-discovery and allows you to reclaim your narrative, moving forward with renewed confidence and hope.
