There are times when we find ourselves on auto-pilot, in a state of being that is mundane, overwhelming, and monotonous. We want to take our lives to the next level but do not possess the tools to do so. If you are feeling stuck and want more out of life, I'm here to assist with setting goals, overcoming limited beliefs, and developing appropriate coping skills that will propel you forward in life. I offer counseling services that are easily accessible whether you are insured or self pay. Oftentimes, we focus on past life experiences or are anxious about the future; therefore, I use a combination approach that includes mindfulness (being present) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (thoughts influence behaviors). This technique helps with grounding and appreciating the present moment while identifying belief patterns that are a hindrance. I want you to know that you've already made the right step by seeking out a qualified therapist. In this very moment, you are making a life-changing decision to improve your overall mental well-being. If you are interested in how I can assist in your life's journey, please feel free to reach out. I'm here for you!

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Clients expect to get someone who will listen to them and validate their life experiences and feelings.

What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?

I am a firm believer in the mindfulness-based cognitive behavioral therapeutic approach. It is evidenced based and works well for those coping with anxiety and depression. Additionally, I offer a solution-focused, client centered approach.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I am committed to helping those suffering with anxiety and depression. I believe in the importance of redirecting focus to the present moment and can help provide you with tools to self-soothe in the moment.
