I’m passionate about a holistic focus to helping others on their journey to overall wellness. Helping others increase their self-awareness through talk therapy is key, and I believe once an individual recognizes their personal strengths & capabilities the sky is the limit. I integrate CBT with Motivational Interviewing on my mission to help people recognize what faulty beliefs, and unresolved past experiences may correlate with present day maladaptive choices & behaviors. Recognizing how these negative beliefs & behaviors may be the barriers to living one’s best life is just the beginning of motivation for change.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Clients can expect the initial session to be the beginning of building a rapport since the questions asked will be the foundation for us to determine their specific needs and personal goals.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My greatest strength as a clinician is that I believe my clients can reach their full potential and having worked with the overall population for the past 17 years, I've developed a supportive method for that helps the client normalize their challenges, and in turn this prompts me to lay the groundwork for upcoming sessions to be a structured to your individual goals.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Helping clients explore their belief system & thought process through CBT is the key to identifying the correlation between negative beliefs that prompt negative coping skills & faulty behaviors. Self-awareness results in breaking down the barriers to living one’s best life and embracing the beginning of motivation for change.
Motivational Interviewing
I’m passionate about a holistic focus to helping others on their journey to overall wellness. I believe once an individual recognizes their personal strengths & capabilities the sky is the limit. I integrate CBT with Motivational Interviewing on my mission to help people recognize ways in which thought distortions & unresolved past experiences often correlate with present day maladaptive choices & behaviors. Helping my clients build a foundation from their identified strengths leads to them feeling empowered which results in a stronger sense of autonomy & self-actualization.
Positive Psychology
Part of my therapeutic process is to help my clients recognize patterns of negative beliefs & catastrophic thoughts by teaching them to positively reframe negative dialogue since it no longer serves them.
