With over 15 years of experience as a Psychologist, I have an eclectic approach to treatment, but tend to draw from relational and cognitive behavioral approaches in order to design a specialized treatment plan based on your unique needs.
Explore your history and values, learn strategies for managing stress and setting healthy boundaries, work toward self-compassion and acceptance, explore your strengths, and build healthy supports.

I tailor my approach to my clients. Sometimes just having space to explore thoughts and feelings allows for new insights. Others may benefit from support and validation, gentle challenging, or practical tools to manage stress and process emotions.
We may work through every day stress, drama at work, how difficult it is to be a parent, and best of all how to help you feel better. You are a human and there is no book on how to figure out life. We will get through this, together.

I focus on building the relationship before going into all of the details. If you can't trust me, we likely won't do good work. I will be honest with you and not just tell you what you want to hear, but also have empathy and be a support you need.
Together we will identify individualized goals such as coping skills, communication skills, healthy boundaries, healthy relationships, anger management, self-love, forgiveness, grief, process feelings, discuss past trauma, and/or addiction concerns.

Something to know about my approach is that I am unconventional. Meaning I cuss, I will speak the hard truths, and I will provide a safe space where you can be vulnerable.
You are not alone. Together we can explore the roots of this pain and learn tools to help you manage the hard things in life and provide a non-judgmental and compassionate place to explore strength for change. The work is not easy but so worth it

I do not view anyone as a broken human needing to be fixed, we all wear masks. Your authentic self deserves a space in this world. Your story is still unwritten and you can take back the pen. I look forward to walking with you on this new journey.
