My approach to therapy is working alongside a person to improve their emotional well-being while overcoming the barriers and struggles they face in their daily life. Whether the struggle is stress, depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse or other issues, I believe that making change, addressing issues, and navigating the healing journey can be a very difficult process and reaching out to a therapist takes strength and courage. I am a dedicated and compassionate therapist who motivates clients to change behaviors, build healthier habits, and improve relationships in a safe, friendly, relaxed atmosphere. I have a strong background in treating mental health diagnoses, trauma, relationship struggles, and substance abuse diagnoses using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Motivational Interviewing among other techniques. I am committed to provide affordable, personalized, evidenced-based therapy to help individuals, couples, and families improve their quality of life. I look forward to the opportunity to continue to help those in need.
