I provide trauma-informed care to women and men. I want to help clarify whatever it is you want to heal. What is it that you aren't getting from your environment that leads you to overwork, over think, isolate or continue habits you already know don't serve you? To communicate better in your relationships I will use what I’ve learned to help guide you in how to disagree without hurting, highlight what is already working, and uncover the struggles you face to get to the core reasons why we get stuck. I help individuals with ADHD, OCD, and other anxiety disorders. The label doesn't matter as much as you do.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
We will explore what brought you to therapy and assess all areas of your life. We will explore what you are seeking from therapy and set realistic goals.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
Clients say I'm easy to talk to and ask good questions that are simple in nature but that also get to the root of their issues. Clients also say I'm professional but easygoing. I tend to have clients who stay for the long term. Therapy can be short and solution focused as well.
