Therapy style

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker I help clients process their experiences with the whole picture in mind; considering their history, culture, identity, and underlying systems of privilege and oppression. I take a therapeutic approach that is both kind and challenging, motivating clients to reach their goals. Over the past decade, I have collaborated with individuals to confront a wide range of barriers holding them back from living the life they desire. My specialties include providing the appropriate coping skills to treat problematic response patterns ranging from perfectionism to codependency.

Approaches

  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
  • Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy (ERP or EXRP)
  • Interpersonal Psychotherapy
  • Solution-focused

Education

MSW - Social Work, University of Michigan

Interests

I enjoy aerial arts including lyra, silks, and trapeze.
