I am an empathetic individual who believes that the process of change, although difficult, aids people in creating a happier and more fulfilling life. I work collaboratively with individuals, families, and couples to develop life goals and support them in realizing their dreams. I utilize a mindfulness based approach to coach those seeking treatment to implement healthy methods to cope with the stress and hardships of the everyday. I specialize in working with those who have struggled with trauma, depression, anxiety, chronic illness, psychiatric disorders, complicated grief, managing anger, problem solving, decision making, gender/sexual identity, and self-esteem issues. I am skilled at establishing a healing bond with those I treat as I utilize a nonjudgmental, strengths based approach in the therapeutic relationship. In addition, I have a background in fine arts and therefore creatively combine various methods of expressive art into my treatment with individuals, groups and families. I am dedicated to supporting people who are facing challenging times in their lives and I strive to guide individuals toward health and mental wellness. If you are interested in scheduling a session with me please contact me by phone or e-mail for a free consultation.
