About me

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist. For almost a decade, I have worked to help many diverse clients, including adults, teens, children, and seniors. Treatment areas have included depression, anxiety, mood disorders, crisis intervention, self-esteem, marital counseling, pre-marital counseling, grief, and more. I am a client-centered therapist who works collaboratively with my clients to help them achieve their goals. The most common theoretical approaches I use in my practice include CBT, DBT, Trauma-focused therapy, and the Gottman Method. My sessions can be described as warm, inviting, supportive, collaborative, and educational. When working with me, I will not only listen to your concerns but also help you identify ways to address and overcome them.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

During our first session, we will discuss current challenges, the history of these issues, and get a general understanding of your family history. From there, I will provide you with feedback regarding my suggestions for treatment (i.e., individual therapy, couples therapy, group, medication management, community support, etc). However, all suggestions made by me are purely suggestions; we will start with whatever services you feel comfortable with.
