Great to meet you!

I believe in keeping an open and honest environment when working together to identify the best course of action and coping skills to help you achieve your goals.

I have enjoyed working with different levels of care in my career, and have been fortunate to help individuals reduce and manage depression, anxiety, as well as work towards sobriety.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I am EMDR trained and also like using different approaches and tools to help you work with, CBT, DBT and Mindfulness to help you improve and create boundaries in order to improve quality of life and reduce symptoms of depression or anxiety you might be struggling with.

What you can expect from our first session

I believe in a collaborative and direct approach to meet you where you are coming from and explore together strategies that can you get to where you need/want to be. I try to make your time count and might explore skills for you to practice in between sessions.
