Therapy style

My goal as a therapist is to help others feel heard, respected, and understood. Therapy can be intimidating to those unfamiliar with it. I want to help individuals feel comfortable in sessions and allow them to be their true selves. I want our sessions to be their safe place. I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. Treatment plans will be developed based on the individual's needs and will be tailored as needed to ensure they are working toward meeting their desired goals. I will be here to help process life's challenges, as well as introduce and review coping mechanisms that can assist in the healing process. I have been practicing therapy for the past 8 years, and have experience working with adolescents, teens, and adults. I have worked with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, and trauma.

Interests

When I am not working, you can find me spending time with my 16-month-old son. I love going on walks with him and our dog and playing outside in our backyard. I enjoy reading and watching documentaries. I also enjoy cleaning and organizing my home.
