It is my belief that there are no life challenges, large or small , that cannot benefit from the therapeutic process. My approach to therapy is individually based to best fit my client so he/she can become confident in their ability to create achievable goals, make positive changes and sustain their progress throughout and after the therapeutic process. Cognitive-behavioral therapy, person centered and solution focused interventions allow for the most input from my clients with measurable results. I am also a strong believer in the benefits of humor and being more appreciative of our efforts to be the best version of ourselves.

My motivation working with clients is to assist them to live their best life. Whether you are dealing with Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, I want to work with you to lessen the amount of energy you are using to cope. They take so much of our energy that they leave us with little to put toward living our best life. It becomes a vicious cycle that seems we can't break, untreated they can take over our lives. Working together we can lessen their effect on our daily lives and have energy to focus on the good in our life.

I strive to treat every client as unique individuals who are not defined by their life struggles, but are seeking empowerment and tools to overcome them. I utilize a vast array of therapeutic techniques in order to meet the needs of each of her clients, including, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Client-Centered approaches, and Psychodynamic Therapy. I also believe that therapy is a team effort and is most effective when the therapist and client work together through trust and rapport, and identifies honesty/transparency as a key component to the efficacy of treatment.

Life's motion can feel intense and demanding, seeming to move at a pace beyond one's stride, resulting in chronic stress, increased anxiety, fear, and for some, chronic pain. Throughout this motion, self-care and nurturing relationships can feel overwhelming. Connecting with another human can be one of the safest ways to become grounded and encounter what is asking for acknowledgment and care. I believe the therapeutic relationship and environment has immense potential to provide a secure container for all that is felt to be seen and explored—giving fear the opportunity to be faced and transformed into intentional forward movement.
