About My Clients

I work on getting to know my clients so I can decide through a collaborative approach on what therapeutic modalities to use to help meet your needs. You are the expert on ourself and I learn who you are and work WITH my clients on facilitating growth and change in my clients. Book with me now my clicking on my website. Right now I can accommodate virtual appointments with in-person appts starting mid- December.

My Background and Approach

I take a client-centered approach to counseling & work to provide a safe, non-judgmental, & validating environment to build trust with my client’s & to foster our therapeutic relationship. I believe that life is a balance of acceptance & change & I work with my clients to explore areas of their lives causing them difficulty & to find balance between the processes of acceptance & the change necessary to foster improvements in one’s life. I can help the client explore the complexities of this balance & teach & provide the skills necessary to enact changes. I have a therapy dog Milo in training that is in office with me for appts.
