Therapy style

I believe in a holistic, person-centered, and empathetic approach to therapy. I am passionate about guiding clients toward answering their own questions in an informed manner that helps shepherd them toward positive change.

My therapy style utilizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. I specialize in working with life transitions, stress, Anxiety, Depression, and parenthood.
