Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
In our initial meeting, my priority is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and understood. We’ll explore your concerns, strengths, and goals, and begin charting a path forward that aligns with your values. Together, we’ll identify the areas causing the most distress and collaboratively develop a customized treatment plan tailored to your unique needs. Expect warmth, confidentiality, and a partnership focused on your growth.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
Evidence-Based Practice: I integrate cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), mindfulness-based techniques, and progressive muscle relaxation to address both emotional and physical symptoms[memory]. Individualized Care: Every client’s journey is unique. I emphasize personalized case management, adapting interventions to fit your specific circumstances and preferences. Holistic Approach: I consider the whole person—mind, body, and relationships—helping you cultivate resilience in all areas of life. Commitment to Growth: I am dedicated to staying informed about the latest therapeutic advances and continuously refining my skills to provide the highest standard of care. Empathy and Open-Mindedness: You can expect respect, compassion, and a collaborative spirit as we work together toward your goals.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
My approach is especially well-suited for adults and young adults who: Struggle with anger, irritability, or emotional regulation, personality disorders, and want to develop healthier coping skills. Face relationship challenges, including communication breakdowns, conflict, or the aftermath of breakups and loss. Are working to rebuild self-esteem and confidence, particularly following life transitions or personal setbacks. Experience anxiety, depression, or trauma-related symptoms and seek practical, compassionate strategies for relief. Live with chronic physical conditions that impact emotional well-being and daily functioning.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT focuses on the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. The core idea is that the way you think about situations can affect how you feel and what you do. By identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns, you can alter your emotions and actions in positive ways.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
One-on-one sessions focus on applying DBT skills to the person’s unique challenges, reinforcing behavioral change, and addressing any barriers to progress
Motivational Interviewing
The therapist and client work together as equals, with the client as the expert on their own life and the therapist as a guide. The therapist draws out (evokes) the client’s own motivations, values, and strengths, rather than imposing external reasons for change. The therapist takes a nonjudgmental stance, expresses empathy, highlights strengths, and respects the client’s autonomy—including their right to choose whether or not to change
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
SFBT centers on what clients want to achieve—their goals—and explores what is already working in their lives, rather than delving into past or present problems. The approach assumes that change is always possible and inevitable if clients are motivated to work toward it.
