Therapy style

My approach to counseling is patient-centered and holistic. I want to understand your perspective and experience, so we can establish meaningful goals for our time together. I have years of experience as a nurse, as well as a counselor, which allows me to better view the whole person and the ways physical and mental health intersect. My go-to treatment modalities are evidenced-based and a bit eclectic as each client is unique and one size does not fit all.  My counseling experience ranges from working with individuals in transition, those with depression and anxiety, and those with PTSD. I have worked extensively with sexual trauma survivors, as well as those with infertility. I look forward to getting to know you!
