Whether you are new to therapy, have found yourself stuck in previous therapy or are somewhere in between, welcome! I work to support those experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD challenges, trauma, substance use, stress/burnout, life transitions, relationship issues, self esteem, and/or a lack of sense of self. Many of us have felt a sense of invalidation in our lives and currently struggle with reaching our goals, or becoming our true potential selves. Through my 18 years working in the field, I've developed a style that is balanced between being validating and nurturing along with being direct and challenging. I have approximately 18 years of experience in the field. I am trained as a Certified Addiction Specialist and am an EMDR therapist. Modalities I lean into to help drive the therapeutic relationship and process to help promote growth and change include Person Centered, MI, Reality Therapy, psychodynamics, CBT, DBT and EMDR. Therapy can feel intimidating and vulnerable, both for new and seasoned individuals. Initially we'll work on providing you with tools to manage your current situation/symptoms before gently pushing further into exploring the deeper roots of what's bringing you in and making more enriching connections between the past and present to help drive your future.
