My approach is grounded in evidence based practices, however I am open to the reality that our field is constantly growing and evolving. I have training in several evidence-based approaches like EMDR, Mindfulness, CBT and DBT.

My approach to therapy cannot be categorized into one psychological perspective. I attempt to meet each individual’s specific need by providing a safe, supportive therapeutic environment that fosters open communication of problems and action plans.

Life throws so many twists and turns. It’s great to have someone you can talk to in order help sort out all the problems in a nonjudgmental platform. I incorporate trauma informed practices, using elements of CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, etc.
