About My Clients

I work with adolescents, adults, and couples. I have experience working with clients who have dealt with or are currently dealing with anxiety, and depression, sexuality, those who struggle with self-esteem and assertiveness, relational difficulties, grief and loss, difficult life experiences, and premarital/marital issues.

My Background and Approach

I have worked in the mental health field since 2016 and am passionate about helping others work through challenges and become the best versions of themselves. I would like to say I have a backpack of tools to help you be the best version of yourself. So no matter where you go, you'll always have access to discreet exercises that can quickly create relief. I use a variety of techniques and approaches but typically rely on CBT-based treatment approaches. I am also certified in Trauma-Focused CBT. Life is too short to be miserable, lets work together to make it better.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that everyone can change and grow at any time in their lives. I don't believe that there is a limit to human capacity. I think the main reason we develop mental health issues is because they are unhealthy learned behaviors that we have picked up along the way. Which means that I think you can unlearn the faulty behaviors and replace them with healthy ones. Through my own therapy, I learned how to handle my anxiety and move past it so that it didn't have control over me. I don't discriminate against anyone, I am here for anyone that wants to create a healthier version of themselves.
