APPROACH
In my work with teens and adults, my therapeutic approach is based on each client’s specific needs. No matter who is sitting in front of me, my goal is to make you feel safe enough to be who you are, right in that moment. A trusting relationship is one of the most powerful tools a therapist can provide, which is why I place the therapeutic relationship at such a high importance throughout our work together. My goal is to provide an environment that is non-judgemental and open, where my clients are validated, heard and confident in finding their voice. Most people just want to be heard and I am here to listen. Whether it is dealing with the stress of life, work or school, relationship issues, struggling to find motivation or navigating the dynamics of a blended family system, you deserve to feel good.
PERSONAL
Being surrounded by the people I love brings me so much joy! Whether I am with my husband, daughter, dog, or close family and friends, spending quality time with each of them helps me feel grounded and grateful for those wonderful moments. I love playing board games, working out, enjoying the outdoors, traveling, or eating food with family and friends out at our favorite restaurant or trying new recipes at home!
EXPERIENCE
I have worked in a variety of settings including schools, hospitals, nonprofits and recovery centers. In my work with clients, I strive to be compassionate, authentic and supportive. This way they feel comfortable to explore different aspects of their life and are empowered to become the best version of themselves. We live in a challenging and complicated world where the struggle is real, but you don't have to face it alone. I have extensive training and years of experience working with clients who struggle with addictive behaviors including social media, porn, co-dependence, etc.
