About My Clients
Over the years that I have been in practice as a therapist and working with clients across the age spectrum with different mental health needs, one theme is consistent; we are driven by a desire to be in connection with one another, to be seen and heard by others. It is in this that the foundations of true connection can be found. Patience and presence. In allowing others to relate to you in their own space and time, we are communicating to one another...I see you; I hear you; we are connected.
My Background and Approach
Experienced in hospital, outpatient, private practice, and tele mental health environments. Specialties include Adolescent, Young Adult, Family, Relationship, Anxiety, Depression, Substance Abuse and Addiction, and LGBTQ+. My approach is eclectic with an emphasis on exploring and finding the "why" behind what you are searching to change and developing your own strengths in order to make those changes. Emphasis on changing your thoughts and behaviors that are getting in your way through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Change, Person Centered, Strengths and Hope based approaches.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe we are here to be in relation and connection with one another. I have found through my experience as a therapist, the lack of this at some level or another, can be found at the core of most, if not all mental health struggles or other life challenges. It is the safety found in being seen and heard by others that drives us and gives hope.
