I am a very passionate therapist who has been counseling individuals since the year 2000. I am animated and authentic. I am dedicated to my clients and their healing. There is nothing more beautiful than watching people transform their lives from dysfunctional to functional and then to extraordinary. I feel honored that I get to do this very important work.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Clients can expect to feel engaged and relaxed during their first session as I am very easy to relate to and talk with. I am objective and nonjudgemental. I check in with my patients regarding how they feel our connection is progressing and I welcome them to let me know if anything about my approach does not "sit well" with them.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My greatest strengths are that I truly do care about my clients and them attaining their best possible outcome.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

This method is is very successful in helping people recognize that what they are thinking is causing their emotions and, in turn, effects their behavior.

Psychoeducation

Psychoeducation is extremely important so that people can learn about their diagnoses, symptoms, methods of functioning and how they may have been effected by their own specific history.

Eclectic

It is necessary to be a flexible therapist and, at times, utilize an ecletic approach for clients who may benefit from a combination of therapy styles.

Trauma-Focused CBT

Many clients have experienced trauma and require skilled guidance in order to navigate these challenging memories.
