I offer phone and video sessions through a secure portal for clients who are distancing or quarantined. Have you been struggling with feeling sad, having enough energy to get through your day or been overwhelmed with worry? I believe that each individual possesses strength and resilience, and sometimes it takes work to for one to recognize the unique qualities and character they have. I want to help you in your journey to discovering your strengths and help you through moments that have challenged you in the past and present, to create a better future. My approach to therapy is client-centered. I will meet you where you are at and support you in achieving your goals. I have a lot of experience with trauma, anxiety, depression, survivors of domestic violence, autism, and borderline personality disorders. "I am not what has happened to me, I am who I choose to become" -Carl Jung. Every person has the right to lead a fulfilling and satisfying life. Each person experiences their own unique set of challenges, and as we work together I appreciate that you are the expert on yourself. Let's work together to find your strengths, heal, and achieve your goals.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session there will be time for me to introduce myself to you and talk about my methods. I will ask questions to get an understanding of what you would like to work on in our sessions together. I also welcome your questions for me, as you will be getting to know my style and how I operate.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My biggest strength is noticing patterns that may be occurring over time. I enjoy making these observations to my clients as it builds awareness for themselves and it can lead to a breakthrough for the client, helping to empower them to break out of cycles they may find themselves in.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I enjoy working with clients who are interested in exploring their family dynamics and understanding themselves in that context. I enjoy helping empower clients to recognize the agency they have, helping them to build assertiveness and begin setting boundaries.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I use CBT in combination with other modalities(DBT, IFS, psychodynamic, polyvagal, Eriksonian) that are customized to each client to achieve the best outcomes.
Group Therapy
Have you been feeling overwhelmed by concerns about our everchanging world? Would you like a safe space to process your concerns, and to share your feelings with other individuals who share similar concerns? I will be starting up an 8 week processing group to provide a safe, supportive environment to guide individuals struggling with anxiety and depression. This group will be a space to talk and process, will include guided meditation and calming strategies, as well as some resources provided outside of the group space. I invite you to contact me with any questions or are interested in joining this group!
