About My Clients
I feel that it is important for both the patient and the therapist to build a healthy therapeutic relationship. I work with individuals and couples who are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, life-transitions, self-esteem issues, emotional or behavioral issues, marital issues, career counseling, grief/loss, and life in general. I have experience working with individuals with mental health issues and survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault.
My Background and Approach
I feel that it is important for both the patient and the therapist to build a healthy therapeutic relationship. I practice with a strengths-based approach, to highlight your abilities as a means for healing. I utilize psychodynamic, CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and trauma informed modalities. We'll start with what's going on in the moment and move into the root of the issues. For the past 6 years, my practice has been focused on helping people cope with their symptoms to lead a happy and healthy life. It takes courage to seek help, and I am here to make this journey easier. I believe that creating a supportive, judgment-free environment is key in developing a positive therapeutic relationship. My intention is to help you heal from your past, grow, and move forward happily with your life.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that anyone is capable of growth and change if the right work is put in. I think the main reason we develop mental health issues is due to unhealthy learned patterns and behaviors that we have picked up in childhood, and that come out in adulthood. As an adolescent and after I had my first child, I dealt with severe anxiety and depression. Through my own therapy, I learned how to handle my anxiety and cope with the symptoms to prevent it from taking over. If you want to learn more about how I can help, shoot me a message. I am here to help you find the light within!
