Therapy style

Therapy can be intimidating, but your therapist should not be. I will make it my priority to learn the things that make you feel welcome and work on creating an open and trusting connection. Part of my work in the therapy room is to help you create an inner map based on your experiences and use this map to guide us in the treatment process. I provide a lot of education about your current symptoms to help you understand yourself better. Part of healing is to know that symptoms show up to lead us to the wound. As important as it is to get rid of them, it is just as important to understand the root that brought them to be here.

Interests

I have 2 dogs and I love talking to them on walks. I am also very active in my community, I help with different projects that involve mental health workshops. I am Christian and am very involved with different ministries. I also like to nap, it is such a great reset for me and I take advantage of every opportunity I have to get some rest.
