Given the environment and opportunity to process their emotions, I believe each person is capable of growth. Counseling has always been a passion for me, and I strive to create a supportive space during sessions for clients to share without feeling judged. Clients should feel heard, understood, and safe in therapy to explore and develop their true selves.
Â
Grounded in empathy, my therapeutic approach uses a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT). Together, we will identify emotions and stressors that contribute to your concerns and will focus on short-term and long-term goals to meet your needs. We will build on the strengths you bring to the session and help you to adopt healthy coping skills to become a better you. I may suggest supplemental strategies to enhance your treatment, such as homework to be completed outside of the session, journaling, relaxation exercises, meditation, and suitable support groups within the community.

I applaud you for prioritizing your mental health and seeking professional help.
