Hi! I like to provide an eclectic approach to therapy that is individualized to your needs. I enjoy working with individual adults. I know therapy can be intimidating, but I will provide you with a warm and empathetic approach that will focus on your goals or areas of your life that are no longer working for you. We will learn a variety of coping skills to help you decrease anxiety, depression, and stress. We will use your strengths to set boundaries and identify goals you wish to achieve. Whatever you are experiencing, we will work through it together.
In our first session together, I will try to gain an understanding of your life as a whole. We can then work together to create treatment goals to help you stay focused. I usually provide materials or resources to utilize in between sessions to keep therapy active in your daily life.
I excel in treating depression, anxiety, and relationship concerns. Mindfulness, EMDR, and CBT approaches have shown success in many of my clients to help decrease their symptoms.
