Taking the first step toward mental wellness can be daunting. I’m here to meet with you authentic kindness and empathy as you begin to make changes to better yourself and your life. I foster a nonjudgmental atmosphere for you to explore all the inner-workings that may be contributing to you not feeling like your best self. I specialize in trauma, disordered eating, body image, anxiety, depression, stress management, and parenting. I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults experiencing a range of difficulties from stress through severe symptoms related to a variety of disorders. I have training in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Processing Therapy.
In our first session together, we will work together to identify what you would like to see change in your life. We will explore your history, strengths, connections, and resources. We will review the therapy process and expectations for your care.
My strength is my relaxed and adaptable approach. I am going to listen to what you want or need from treatment and meet you there.
I use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Techniques to give you tangible skills for sitting with difficult thoughts and feelings.
I use Cognitive Processing Therapy for clients with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder to reshape beliefs and thoughts that have been altered by traumatic experiences.
