Asking for help is one of the hardest things to do. It can make you feel defeated and vulnerable, however, it is the first step to overcome the obstacles in your life. After overcoming this step, the last thing you want to do is to tell a stranger your most inner thoughts. I will provide an environment that encourages trust, open communication, and understanding. I believe it is important to collaborate with my clients as each client is the expert of their own lives. It is my personal goal to empower and develop the skills my client needs to address any issues that are prohibiting them from living the life that they want to live.

I’m only taking clients who need evaluations - not therapy at this time, but I firmly believe that everyone could use some therapeutic intervention at some point in their life & these skills should be applied in every area of our lives. For that reason, I often ask that my clients practice our skills in between sessions. It is difficult to use therapeutic skills when we need them if we do not practice them when we are calm & levelheaded. I give transparency and honesty to my clients, and I expect it in return.

As a Licensed Marital and Family Therapist, I view the family like a tree. The individual branches represent each person in the family.

It can be hard to ask for help, and because of that, I want to point out that you have already taken the first step in the process by beginning the search for a therapist that can help you with your goals! My primary focus is you and what goals you have for yourself and/or your family. Together we can help you identify the stressors in your life, identify the changes you want to make, come up with a plan or goals to help, and then work together to help you reach those goals.

I believe the most important aspect of a therapeutic relationship involves creating a safe space for people to process their difficulties without feeling judged, regardless of religion, sexual orientation, or ethnicity. I take a "person centered" approach to help people work toward their treatment goals at their own pace, helping them to lean on their own strengths and supports. I lean heavily into Internal Family Systems to help clients become aware of, understand, and accept the different parts of themselves and learn ways to integrate these parts so they can work together instead of against each other.
