Therapy Style

Life can get tough and overwhelming for anyone. When things get difficult you may find yourself trying to figure things out on your own which often leads to avoiding issues like anxiety, sadness, feeling withdrawn, or relationship struggles. I work with my patients to identify concrete tools that will empower you to react with more control, insight, and balance. We'll work together to develop the skills you need to gain deeper insight and overcome the everyday barriers you face so you can live a rich, full and meaningful life.

Having a therapist who can meet you where you are is paramount on the path to change. I approach each client as an individual with a unique blend of needs. I address concerns and strengths with a straight-forward and action-oriented approach while utilizing evidenced-based treatments, such as CBT, DBT, and ACT to help you better cope with life's stressors.

I have nearly two decades of experience helping teens, adults and developmentally disabled individuals heal from past wounds while learning healthier ways to cope with the challenges of life and maximize their personal growth. If you are looking for a safe place to explore ways to enhance your relationships, minimize emotional distress and keep stressors from becoming stumbling blocks, let us embark on this journey together.
