Therapy style
My experience includes 16 years of working in both community inpatient and outpatient settings, providing therapy to adolescents and adults. Therapy is an individualized journey that takes courage. By providing you with a safe, nonjudgmental space, you can begin the work necessary to change. I intend to be your mirror to see not only the version of who you are today but the version of who you desire to be for tomorrow. I believe you have the power to build on your internal strengths and wish to support you toward growth. Our relationship is essential for the therapy process. You have a story to tell and I’m here to listen.
