I have nearly a decade of experience in behavioral health, treating depression, anxiety, trauma, and personality disorders. I encourage using personal values as life's compass; you are the expert on you. I maintain a neutral, conservative stance, providing an unbiased perspective to help you process things objectively. Progress is a team effort; I guide you out of the forest for a better view of the trees. I hold clients accountable to untangle the web and find a clear path. I work primarily with adults to build a transparent, professional partnership.
