As a clinician, I am committed to offering empathetic and compassionate care to individuals (including adults, children, and adolescents), families, and couples. I have experience working with persons experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD, OCD, ADHD, and those who have experienced trauma. I am committed to providing clients with a safe, accepting, and supportive environment in which they can explore their thoughts and feelings, as well as process past trauma. Additionally, I am experienced in working with clients who would like to learn coping skills and techniques for increased emotional regulation.
I believe in employing a client centered approach which prioritizes the well-being, needs, and goals of the client. I am experienced in utilizing several treatment approaches including; Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT), Somatic, and Mindfulness.
If you think my approach might fit your needs, please feel to reach out to me to schedule your first session.
