Therapy style

I believe in empowering individuals and giving them the tools to succeed and thrive. I use a person-centered, holistic approach that includes your values and acknowledges the connection between mind, body, and spirit. With my background in trauma-informed care and behavioral therapy — We will work together to get you “unstuck” from negative thought patterns, paralyzing anxiety, and unhealthy behaviors. I will create a comfortable setting with a calming and compassionate presence. While I may sprinkle in a little humor to maintain a relaxed environment, my honest and direct approach focuses on you experiencing true change.
