The most important journey in life is self-discovery. It is a difficult step because we must confront our faults and accept humility to achieve personal growth. My job is to help you find your favorite version of yourself. I'm here to help guide your path while you learn to love yourself, accept your past and current circumstances, and foster healthier relationships. On our path of self-discovery, we find ourselves stuck in the past and focusing on our hardships, or allow our fears to prevent us from reaching our goals. I want to help you embrace the resilience your past has created and overcome your fears to achieve your goals. Spending the past four years of my career working in my community and offering treatment on an inpatient level; I've helped clients in their darkest hours and offered support and a non-judgemental space for them in their most vulnerable times. I have my specialty, but I'm willing to work with and learn with you, regardless of where you are on your journey. I understand how uncomfortable it is to be honest with a stranger without fear of judgment. It's difficult to trust anyone with our most intimate and vulnerable thoughts and experiences. It's my goal to provide a space of compassion that is supportive and non-judgmental. I will always be honest with you and open to your feedback.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Our first session will be different than the rest of treatment. I will be explaining to you what therapy will look like, I will be asking you questions about your current stressors, your past, your relationships, and your future goals. You are welcome to ask any questions about me. This is our time to get to know each other and ensure I am the best fit for your current needs.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I utilize CBT, DBT, Mindfulness, and IFS in treatment. I use these methods interchangeably in session to fit each clients needs. Each session will feel different based on what the topic of session is.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
What I value most in my clients' is their willingness to learn about themselves and grow. Most of my clients come from traumatic childhoods where they didn't experience healthy or safe love. I enjoy working with these clients because I get the opportunity to help them understand healthy love and how to build strong and meaningful connections with their support systems.
