As someone who has been on both sides of the therapy chair, I understand how vulnerable therapy can make you feel and how intimidating it can be. My focus is on creating a therapeutic relationship to allow for authenticity and empathy. I believe that by gaining insight and learning about the relationships we hold with ourselves and those we interact with, we gain a sense of understanding, confidence and security. My approach to treatment is collaborative. I focus on mindfulness, increasing insight and empowerment. My areas of specialty include trauma, depression, anxiety, body image, PTSD / CPTSD, suicidal thoughts and urges. I practice using aspects from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I prioritize holding a LBGTQIA + affirming space. I want to meet people wherever they are in their own mental health journey. I am accepting adults and adolescents for individual sessions.
