Therapy style

I am drawn to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) because of its systematic and goal-oriented approach while simultaneously allowing for a warm and collaborative relationship. As a therapist, CBT is appealing because of its evidence-based status and overall treatment success with longer-lasting symptom relief. It is rewarding to watch my clients gain the confidence to use the tools outside of sessions and become their own best therapist. I provide short-term counseling 12-16 sessions, assigning homework after each session, and having a structured approach to help my clients have a clear idea of what to expect once we get started!

Approaches

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-i)
  • Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy (ERP or EXRP)
  • Prolonged Exposure
  • Strengths-based

Education

MA - Counseling Psychology, The Wright Institute

Interests

I am an avid swimmer and spend quite a bit of time outdoors hiking out in nature. I enjoy trying new cooking recipes and seeing my loved ones! My newest hobbies I'm dabbling in are beekeeping and gardening.
