I specialize in adult mental and addiction treatment. I primarily utilize a Reality Therapy approach, but often integrate components of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. My passion is working with adults who are navigating challenges such as depression, anxiety, life transitions, and stress. I provide a collaborative and compassionate approach that focuses on helping clients take meaningful steps towards positive change.
Sessions with me will be collaborative, genuine, and goal-focused. I create a safe and supportive space while also challenging clients to take active steps toward the changes they want to see. I balance empathy with accountability, which helps clients explore what they truly want in life and how their choices are moving them closer or further from those goals. I bring structure through therapeutic techniques, but I also stay flexible and person-centered. You can expect genuineness, gentle humor, honesty, and a focus on realistic changes. My goal is for you to leave each session with a clearer sense of direction and a growing belief in your ability to make meaningful changes.
Clients often return because they feel understood, respected, and supported. I create a space where they can be completely free of judgement and yet still gently challenged enough to grow. I blend compassion with accountability so clients feel emotionally safe and motivated to make lasting change. Clients have shared that I am caring while also direct. I listen wholeheartedly while also helping them identify patterns, developing coping skills, and building confidence in themselves. Clients know that their sessions with me will consist of practicality, purposefulness, empowerment, and more than likely some light hearted humor.
