I have experience across a variety of settings, including outpatient specialty clinics, crisis intervention, structured outpatient programs, and private practice. My approach My approach emphasizes the mutual development of goals for therapy. Seeking therapy can be challenging at first, so congratulations on taking the first step. I truly believe in therapy and hope you can overcome the roadblocks in your recovery. My focus I have a broad range of clinical experience working with individuals and groups across the lifespan in the following areas: Depression and Bipolar Disorder, Anxiety Disorders, Behavioral and Discipline Challenges, Self-Harm Behavior, Complicated Grief Reactions, Chronic Pain and Chronic Illness, Anger and Stress Management, Trauma and Abuse, Family and Relationship Issues, Attachment Issues, Codependency, Suicide Assessment and Risk Reduction, Group Psychotherapy, Problems with Addiction, Couple’s Conflict including Civil Divorce, Self-Image and Self-Esteem Issues including bariatric patients and healthy lifestyle change. My communication style My clients feel comfortable because I allow them to be themselves without judgment and give space to grow in their own time, removing feelings of guilt and improving self-compassion. My journey to mental healthcare I was 17 years old, taking my first psychology class, and I felt a passion I had never felt before. I thought, “I want to be a counselor. I want to help people who are suffering and help them improve their lives.” My goals for you We work on goals together, always respecting the wants and needs of my clients. My first session with you You will feel comfortable because I create an environment that makes you feel safe with me.
