Get to know me

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

In our first session, we will review background information, family history, purpose of treatment, and create a treatment plan together that is most effective for you.

The treatment methods and tools I utilize

Treatment methods I utilize in my practice are Dialectical Behavior therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused, Family Systems, Person Centered, Mindfulness and Psychodynamic approaches depending on what is most effective for each individual and their presenting clinical factors.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My goal as your therapist is to find a balance between being encouraging, kind and supportive, yet challenging to make the changes necessary for you to achieve your goals. I will create the space needed for you to process your thoughts, explore your feelings, gain new perspectives and find inner strength to discover solutions that work for you.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I am empathic and genuine, which helps each individual feel safe and comfortable. I am able to connect with my clients on a deeper level that provides a rich and productive experience.
