Therapy gives people the opportunity to develop effective and healthy responses to life's stressors. I work to create a safe holding environment to allow you to feel comfortable being yourself. I work with clients to help them develop a deeper awareness regarding their behaviors, thoughts, patterns, and feelings. I like to get to the source rather than just focus on the symptoms. I work with adults dealing with anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship stress, parenting, ADHD, identity exploration, people pleasing, assertive communication, self-esteem, and grief. We will work at your pace. It's about progress, not perfection. I work with you to help you empower yourself. Asking for help or support can be scary. Making the decision to begin therapy takes a great deal of strength. You are in charge of who you want to work with. Reach each out if you would like to explore working together.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, we will gather information about you and identify goals.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I utilize a variety of therapeutic techniques depending on each client's individual needs. Some of the methods that I use are cognitive behavioral therapy, Ecosystemic Structural Family Therapy, Attachment-Based therapy, and some Psychodynamic interventions. I try to develop a trusting and non-judgmental relationship to allow you to be able to express your thoughts/feelings. Expressing these feelings can feel freeing and help you make sense of them. We are all human.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I am most skilled in helping individuals who are experiencing anxiety, struggling with people pleasing, parenting, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and people who struggle with self-esteem. In addition, I excel in building trusting and caring relationships with my clients.
