I truly enjoy being a therapist and have had the honor of working with a wide range of issues from community mental health, outpatient treatment, and my private practice. I enjoy working with various ages and diverse populations. I use DBT and CBT therapy approaches to help my patients feel truly equipped and empowered to live a life worth living.
Your first session with begin with an assessment to learn more about you and to create goals for your journey in therapy.
My greatest strengths are my ability to connect and be authentic in my sessions. I also am skilled at assessments and helping patients engage the right interventions to reach their goals. This may include medication management partnering with a Psychiatrist or other people that are part of the patient's treatment team.
I believe I do well working in individuals, couples, and adolescents.
