(she/her)
Do you struggle with trust? Intimacy? The fear of being rejected? Anxiety, anger, guilt, shame, sadness, self-sabotaging behaviors, substance abuse? These are all common responses to abandonment, trauma, and sexual abuse. There is hope. You can heal. I am living proof that therapy works. I will provide you a safe space built on trust, compassion, reassurance, and optimism based on evidenced-based practice theories and interventions. My goal is to partner with you capitalizing on your strengths to create insights to the why's and how's of your life. Together we can create new healthier thinking patterns and behaviors so you can have the life you have always wanted and deserve. I have experience working with adolescents, individuals, couples, those with addictions, hospice patients, and families, in a variety of settings.
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
During our first session, we will discuss the reason you sought out therapy, and identify your goals. My desire is that you feel comfortable, safe, and understood so that we can establish a positive therapeutic alliance. Our sessions moving forward will focus on exploring and identifying negative thinking, and behavior patterns. Together we will examine the origins of these negative patterns. At times, sessions may be highly emotional, however, I will always attempt to end it on an upbeat note. Walking away feeling hopeful is a good session, and my aspiration for you.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My strength is my passion to see people healed and whole, which is conveyed through my empathetic, non-judgmental, respectful character.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
Trauma, sexual abuse, self-esteem, anxiety, relationships
