About My Clients
It's important to feel like your therapist understands you and what you're going through. I make sure to take time to really get to know my clients and their situations to come up with a plan that is unique to the individual. I also like to ensure that I provide clients with strategies or things to contemplate in in between sessions to further the therapy process. Therapy is a collaborative process and should be directed by the client!
My Background and Approach
I use a variety of approaches including CBT, DBT, EMDR, mindfulness, and psychoeducation, and believe in creating a safe space and taking the time necessary to really get to know my clients to find strategies and interventions that are individualized to their needs. I believe in empowering my clients and strive to help them develop strengths and usable strategies that can be utilized in many situations. While having the space to talk about issues in clients' lives is important, I firmly believe it's also imperative for clients to come away from each session with something to work on or reflect on in between sessions, and to feel like an active part of their therapy journey. I work mainly with individuals and couples to manage situations involving stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma, and am accepting of all genders and identities.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
While there are many skills and interventions that can be useful for a variety of clients, therapy is still an individual journey and should be treated as such. Therapy is not about me --it's about the individual.
