Welcome! If you are reading this profile, you are likely in the process of making a very important decision – choosing a therapist. I believe the client-therapist relationship is an essential component of growth and change, and I am happy to share more with you about myself and my approach to therapy. First, while I strive to create a safe, supportive, and affirming space for everyone, I recognize that safety is something that must be felt and not simply declared. I will meet you where you are at and work to build the trust necessary for vulnerability, growth, and change. We will work collaboratively to explore your needs and create a treatment plan that works for you. I am trained and experienced in using evidenced-based approaches, including CBT, DBT, Solution Focused Therapy, and Insight Oriented Psychotherapy. I specialize in adult ADHD/Autism, behavioral addictions, complex trauma, life stress, and relationship issues. As you learn more about yourself, you will gain the awareness and courage to cultivate change in your life. Your best future self is waiting! Regardless of what you are experiencing, you are not alone, and it would be my privilege to share in your journey.
