I truly enjoy helping others. It brings me great joy to be able to connect and assist you with moving past struggles to be able to move forward to a new, healthier version of yourself. I would love to help you address life issues and gain helpful insights into your mind, emotions, and behaviors.
My personality is empathetic, caring, & passionate. I have experience working with teens, young adults, adults, older adults, and couples. I apply a humanistic approach and couple it with CBT, Post Modern, Existential, Psychoanalytic, Family Systems and/or EMDR- depending on your specific needs. I have EMDR training that applies to various needs.
I have worked in seven clinical positions within various settings. I specialize in treatment of Mood Disorders, Anxiety Disorders, and PTSD/C-PTSD. My approach to treatment is client centered and collaborative. I try to break complex things down into palatable and digestible material and work with you on goals, needs, skill building, insights, self exploration, etc. I also work with themes that I have encountered throughout my years as a psychotherapist, such as existential issues, coming of age issues, stage of life changes, grief, abandonment, stress management, spirituality, trauma, sex-related issues, self esteem issues, and relationship issues.
I believe therapy is about treating people on an energetic level. I want you to feel as though you can heal from the inside and extend that out to others. I am passionate about being a therapist and self growth has always been important to me. I am very dedicated to being a therapist and have been since a very young age. I enjoy helping others grow to reach their potential. Especially since one of the most profound things that I have learned while being a therapist, is that we are a lot more similar than one usually thinks. We all struggle in different capacities and we can learn, grow, and help one another along the way. I am excited to join you on your life’s journey. I hope to have the opportunity to help you create progress toward positive and healthy life changes.
