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.
In our first session, we will gather information about you and identify goals.
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.
I work with people struggling with ADHD, self-esteem, peaple pleasing tendencies, anxiety, parents, college students.
I try to look at treating the whole issue rather than just coping with the symptom. I focus on identifying patterns that lead you to unhelpful behaviors. I try to find the source and help the client identify the source while also working on new ways to manage or change the behavior. I also focus on the therapeutic relationship and building trust. I will periodically check in on the relationship to see what is needed to help you feel more comfortable. This also helps with practicing communication of the persons needs with others.
