My approach varies based on your individual needs. I most frequently use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, aspects of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Attachment Theory and Solution Focused models, to help create awareness and understanding. Together, we work toward meaningful change that fits your life and goals. I have lengthy experience in high acuity, crisis settings, educational settings, and life challenges. My communication style is calm, personable, and accommodating. I want my clients to feel comfortable and connected with me, and I take pride in my nonjudgmental listening. I became a therapist because I have a genuine interest in helping others become the best version of themselves. I've been naturally drawn to supporting people since I was young, trusted by friends and active in my community.

First session
In our first session, we'll talk about how you've been feeling recently. I'll ask questions to better understand why you may be feeling that way. This session is about building connection and helping me gain a sense of where we go from here.
Strengths
I approach goal setting by collaborating with you on what you want to accomplish. We start by getting comfortable with therapy and building trust. As we move forward, we track your progress and adjust our focus to match where you are in your journey.
