Hello and welcome! I am a licensed professional counselor and board certified art therapist. I specialize in supporting those who experience symptoms of ADD/ADHD, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, life transitions, low self-esteem, stress, and trauma. I work with children, adolescents, and adults. I am here to listen to fully understand your needs and develop a meaningful and strong therapeutic relationship so that you can feel ready and confident in achieving your goals.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
I have a thorough intake process to ensure that I fully understand your presenting problems, needs, and any goals you would like to achieve in therapy. Throughout my experience as a clinician, faster progress is typically shown in clients who show up motivated for therapy through being their fully authentic self in sharing moments of vulnerability when expressing feelings, and who put in effort to do the work outside of sessions.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
Whether you are facing the complexity of a life transition, dealing with something traumatic, or simply seeking guidance on your journey, I am here to support you every step of the way. I strive to hold a nonjudgmental space to allow yourself to feel safe to open up and explore the depths of your emotions.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
My ideal clients are motivated and ready to begin their journey towards becoming a more improved version of themselves. It is okay to feel unsure about where to start, or lack the proper tools and support needed for success. Come as you are, and try to have openness towards self-growth to learn how to build sustainable habits that will support long-term improvement.
Person-centered (Rogerian)
You as the client are the expert on yourself. I encourage growth through facilitating self-discovery and self-acceptance.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
I use this approach to create short-term personal goals which helps clients find their own solutions to problems.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
This approach helps clients work on being in the present moment, the here and now, without any judgement.
Humanistic
This approach focuses on using unconditional positive regard to foster self-awareness and self-growth.
