I'm a licensed Professional Counselor located in Arizona. I hold a Master of Science in Counseling and have 6 years of experience working in the mental health field, working with individuals, couples, and families. I specialize in working with adolescents ages 11 + and young adults who present with anxiety, mood disorders, and are going through life transitions. I currently see clients through telehealth who reside in Arizona.
During the first session, I will focus on getting to know you as an individual and discuss with you what brings you in for therapy. This may involve your symptoms, family history, and daily lifestyle. During this first session, we will come up with a plan for you moving forward, as well as what goals you may have to work on in sessions.
As a therapist, I strive to help you feel heard and understood. I value taking the time to get to know you as an individual, and learn what makes you, you. I hope that you will leave sessions feeling deeply cared for and listened to.
I enjoy working with adolescents ages 11+, as well as adults.
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify negative or unhealthy ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving.
I use Dialectical Behavioral Therapy to incorporate mindfulness, emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness.
