LCSW, 5 years of experience
Do you find yourself feeling overwhelmed by life’s demands, making it hard to keep everything balanced? Are low mood, anxiety, or a persistent sense of worry interfering with your sleep, relationships, or daily success? Whether you’re facing difficult emotions like depression, feelings of worthlessness, or the weight of past trauma, I’m here to support you. As your therapist, my goal is to help you understand and manage the challenges you’re experiencing. Together, we’ll explore the patterns and triggers that impact your well-being and develop practical, evidence-based coping strategies tailored to your unique needs. My approach focuses on empowering you with tools that extend beyond our sessions, promoting lasting growth and healing. If you’re ready to take the next step toward feeling more grounded and in control, I’d be honored to walk alongside you on this journey. I look forward to meeting you!
During our first session, we’ll take the time to get to know each other and create a comfortable space for you to share what’s brought you to therapy. I’ll ask about your background, current challenges, and goals so we can understand your unique story. This session is an opportunity for you to ask questions about the therapy process and how we’ll work together. Together, we’ll begin identifying patterns, triggers, and strengths that will guide our work moving forward. My goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and hopeful from the very beginning. There’s no pressure—just a compassionate space to start exploring your path toward healing.
My communication style is calm and accommodating. I support individuals to explore thoughts and feelings, as well as discuss life challenges in a safe therapeutic environment through the use of unconditional positive regard. I believe in promoting a positive sense of self, lessening the experience of worry and anxiety that can inhibit one’s growth and enjoyment of life.
If you’re an adult between 18 and 64 feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, or low mood, you’re not alone—and I understand how difficult it can be to navigate these challenges. Maybe you struggle with self-doubt, have trouble managing life transitions, or find yourself stuck in unhelpful patterns that hold you back. Together, we’ll explore these experiences and the thoughts and feelings behind them. You want to build healthier coping skills, gain clarity, and find more balance and confidence in your life. You’re ready to make meaningful changes and are willing to put in the work to heal and grow. If this sounds like you, I’m here to walk alongside you on this journey toward greater well-being and resilience.
I use an eclectic approach, drawing from a variety of evidence-based treatment methods tailored to fit your unique needs and goals. This means I don’t rely on just one technique or theory—instead, I blend strategies from cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, psychodynamic insights, and other modalities to create a personalized plan that works best for you. I focus on helping you develop practical coping skills, increase self-awareness, and address the root causes of your challenges. Together, we explore what resonates most with you, adjusting our approach as you grow and change. This flexible, client-centered method allows us to respond to your evolving needs, ensuring your therapy journey is both effective and meaningful.
