Hello! I feel encouraged that you and I will be able to make solution-focused changes in your life based on a positive and highly motivating relationship. I have been told that I have a unique ability to make each session feel as though you’re involved in warm, conversations full of wisdom and well-placed boundaries. With a calm demeanor, listening ear, and intuitive nature, I am able to discern how to best communicate with the you while working to discern your needs and desires for therapy. Additionally, I am culturally sensitive and trauma-based in my approach. I have an eclectic (personalized and mixed) approach of proven, evidence-based techniques and skills to be your guide to match and map your journey for your needs as your partner and guide. I have a strong affinity for technology and, when suitable, will suggest evidence-based platforms (apps) to enhance your experience, satisfaction, and treatment. I have a high rate of improvement with multiple populations of adults, as I continually study and learn to improve my skills and knowledge.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
When we first meet, it is all about getting to know each other to see if you feel we are a good match. I will listen, focus on your strengths and needs as we work together as partners to begin setting goals. It is my utmost priority is that you feel safe, heard, and validated.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I have been told I have the gift of being present, motivating, and 100% client-focused. I am highly empathic and have walked through many hardships, enabling me to relate to and support you. I am skilled in using analogies and interactive demonstrations and feel honored to help clients like you live your best life. I strongly believe in the importance of partnership with you, the client, as we walk our paths together. I love to incorporate nature, plants, breathing, and multimedia to assist with reducing stress and enhancing life satisfaction.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
I use this to assist client in understanding the nature of their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors while teaching skills to allow emotions to pass, hence, allowing healing over time. Mindfulness and somatic skills are practiced in session to instill health self care routines.
Eclectic
I believe strongly in a customized approach based on client's needs and desired goals. I will use multiple techniques to assist client in reaching goals, one small step at a time.
Psychodynamic
I have found that successful outcomes are reached due to unearthing the reasons why our current struggles and condition are prevalent. Once we dissect the roots, we then move on to present-moment Eclectic Therapy utilizing various evidenced-based treatments.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT is one of the gold standards for treatment due to the fact that our problems, stressors, and behaviors a result of how we think. Quite simply something happens (a cue or trigger) which causes an immediate thought and emotion which results in an action or behavior. CBT is an excellent treatment modality that, over time, reduces unwanted behaviors.
Strength-Based
Building Rapport and trust is my ultimate goal first and foremost as I believe that a trusting relationship is integral before any work can be done. I focus on my clients strengths from the beginning of treatment in order to assist with building confidence and self-esteem. I have used this technique since I began practicing several years ago.
On average, Aetna clients pay $0-$60
