Welcome! If you would like to schedule a session email me your availability on the Grow website and I will get you scheduled. Thank you! You will find me easy to talk to, compassionate, and warm. Working together in a collaborative effort, we will explore ways to help you identify and change thoughts and behavior patterns that keep you from feeling your best. I will tailor your therapeutic needs specifically designed to fit your circumstances to achieve optimal mental health. Searching for the 'right fit' with a therapist doesn't have to be a difficult task. It begins with our working together to empower you to be your own 'change-agent'! I will help you reflect, finding clarity and understanding, allowing you to achieve a more authentic, fulfilling and content life.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
My approach to therapy focuses on growing a relationship built on compassion and authenticity. You don't have to maneuver these waters alone! I will work with you, guiding you how to harness your own strengths and potential. Together we will create a treatment plan for your unique situation and goals.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I have extensive experience using evidenced based methods working with clients struggling with relationships, depression, anxiety, trauma, and LGBTQ-affirming therapy. I am also trained in EMDR therapy, which helps people recover from trauma/PTSD and painful life experiences.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT helps clients become aware of inaccurate or negative thinking so you can view challenging situations more clearly and respond to them in a more effective way.
Couples Counseling
Couples therapy can address a wide range of relationship issues, including recurring conflicts, feelings of disconnection, an affair, issues related to sex, or difficulties due to external stressors.
Person-centered (Rogerian)
Person-centered therapy, also known as Rogerian therapy, is a client-based form of therapy that empowers the client to take ownership of their mental well-being. It shifts the focus from the therapist to the client and allows them to have control of the therapeutic process. Person-centered therapy provides a safe space for clients to become more self-aware and find their own solutions.
EMDR
EMDR therapy is an extensively researched method proven to help people recover from trauma and other distressing life experiences. EMDR therapy shows that the mind can in fact heal from psychological trauma much as the body recovers from physical trauma. When you cut your hand, your body works to close the wound. If a foreign object or repeated injury irritates the wound, it festers and causes pain. Once the block is removed, healing resumes.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
SFBT is a strength-based approach to psychotherapy that focuses on solution-building rather than problem-solving. Unlike other forms of psychotherapy that analyze present problems and past causes, SFBT concentrates on current circumstances and future hopes.
