I believe that you are the expert of your own life. I am here to learn from you and can offer a safe, supportive environment to help you heal and empower you to reach your goals. I specialize in working with individuals ages 18 years and older who encounter challenges with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and healthy boundaries. I use a multi-modal therapeutic approach to tailor treatment to meet your specific needs and goals. I am also an LGBTQ+ ally and offer a safe space for individuals identifying as LGBTQ+.
I prefer to take a more conversational, relaxed approach to therapy rather than a formal, clinical approach. I like to create strong therapeutic alliances to build trust and understanding with clients. My role isn’t to lecture you, judge you, or to tell you what to do – I’m here to actively listen and offer you realistic skills and tools that can help you reach your goals. I am empathetic and compassionate, while keeping a direct approach.
Empathy, encouragement, and unconditional positive regard.
