What could be more important than improving your well-being? In collaboration we will identify and utilize your strengths and values to overcome limitations, so you are free to live your most meaningful life. My goal is to provide an individualized, holistic, and compassionate approachto supporting you in your life journey. My approach Through my 20 years of experience working in mental health including family therapy and working with Veterans and families, I have successfully utilized several therapeutic approaches to address depression, anxiety, trauma, and adjustment issues. Clients report improved quality of life and reduced effects of stressful life circumstances through our work. My focus Are you going through life changes or finding it difficult to cope with the stressors you are facing? I can assist you to face all that life is handing you, and help you overcome anxiety and mood symptoms, so you can achieve greater well-being. Many people experience distressing life situations and events that contribute to feeling overwhelmed. You are not defined by your history and there is hope, I will support you in your healing journey so you can take your power back. My communication style I approach therapy by meeting you where you are at, with compassion and acceptance. My work is client-centered; you are in the driver's seat of your life. I will be a guide and offer perspective and ideas to assist you in developing the coping skills to overcome limitations in your life. My journey to mental healthcare I was drawn to becoming a therapist through many life experiences, as I had witnessed suffering in my friends and family members who experienced addiction and mental health challenges. I began my career path working in a prison and then felt a calling to shift into the mental health arena, then taking a position as a mental health technician at the state hospital, this definitely grew my passion to be in the role of supporting others in their healing processes.
