My approach to therapy is straight forward, rooted in a strengths model rather than a deficit model. This means I do not see people as broken and I believe everyone has what they need to heal. My role is to help you access your inner strengths.
Discuss emotion dysregulation, interpersonal relationship issues, trauma, self-esteem and self-worth, thinking patterns and behaviors that are keeping you stuck. You will also learn new skills and gain insight to change what is not working!

I strive to make my space welcoming and healing for my clients. Together we work to help you achieve your goals. This may look like doing more skills based approaches (like DBT, ACT and CBT) then moving to a trauma focused approach (EMDR, CPT).
I act as a supportive guide to help clients on a journey of connecting with themselves and their needs, developing sensory safety, and finding a support system that celebrates their unique identity.

My clients are folks who are often perceived as different, or feel isolated and stressed by the demands of daily living. Together we will find strategies to provide you with a sense of ease while navigating life with more strength and confidence.
A positive, powerful person lives within every one of us. It takes support, focus, and confidence to see that person manifest within ourselves. I will provide that support, help refine that focus, and guide you toward you towards that confidence.

The part I play in your therapeutic process is to use supportive and person-centered approaches to help you work through negative thinking, manage difficult feelings, expand your self-awareness and improve your self-esteem.
While I specialize in LGBTQIA+ issues, I also work with clients who have anxiety, depression, trauma, or who are experiencing grief. Whatever your goal may be, we will work together to help you achieve that goal in a way that works best for you.

My approach includes techniques from Collaborative Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT). I am always learning and researching new areas of counseling for my clients.
