Hi there! So happy you're here. I am a dedicated therapist with a background in Clinical Social Work and Sociology. I hold a Master's degree from the University of Southern Indiana. My passion is supporting individuals, couples, and families through life's challenges. With years of experience, I use a holistic approach that weaves together various therapeutic models and techniques, all centered around you and your unique needs. Together, we'll build a warm, supportive space where you can navigate your healing journey and become the version of yourself that you aspire to be.
Clients will leave sessions feeling heard, understood, and equipped with tools to tackle life's challenges. My aim is for everyone to gain clarity, emotional balance, and empowerment throughout their therapeutic journey. Through our collaboration, clients gain valuable insights, enhanced coping mechanisms, and a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them.
As a provider, my greatest strengths lie in my ability to create a warm, empathetic, and non-judgmental space where clients feel truly heard and understood. I am dedicated to tailoring my therapeutic approach to meet each client's unique needs, and my holistic and integrative methods ensure that clients receive comprehensive care. My extensive experience and genuine passion for helping others enable me to guide clients through their healing journey with compassion and expertise.
I specialize in treating children, adolescents, and adults with trauma, mental health concerns, and life changes. I am committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental space for clients to explore their thoughts and feelings.
I utilize Trauma-Focused CBT to help clients uncover and address the root causes of their trauma. Together, we will challenge negative thought patterns, develop healthier coping strategies, and enhance emotional well-being in a space that feels safe and supportive for the client
I use Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help clients explore and harmonize the different 'parts' of themselves. This approach is particularly effective for addressing family dynamics, relationship issues, and stress. By understanding and integrating these internal parts, clients can achieve greater self-awareness, balance, and emotional well-being.
I utilize Mindfulness-Based Therapy to help clients stay present and grounded in the moment. By incorporating mindfulness techniques, clients can develop greater self-awareness, reduce stress, and improve their emotional regulation. This approach is particularly beneficial for managing anxiety, stress, and navigating life transitions.
In my work with children and adolescents, I use Play Therapy to help them express their emotions and experiences through play. This therapeutic approach is effective in addressing behavioral issues, trauma, and emotional challenges, providing a safe space for young clients to heal and grow
I prioritize Strengths-Based Therapy to help clients recognize and build upon their unique strengths and capabilities. By focusing on what’s going well and harnessing these strengths, clients can gain a sense of empowerment and resilience. This approach not only fosters confidence but also helps identify areas for growth, enabling clients to better navigate hard times and achieve their personal goals.
