I work great with...

- Clients with ADHD looking to manage symptoms and effects on relationships and work or school
- Someone looking to work through family of origin issues and build relationships that satisfy their unique need for connection
- Self-healers who want to process past trauma and discover what living authentically means to them
- Teens struggling with depression, anxiety or identity
Style & Approach
My clients describe me as warm and caring, nonjudgmental, and empathetic. I value humor & lightheartedness as a means to connect with you, and I am a compassionate counselor who will meet you in this important moment of growth - no matter where you are in your healing process. Together we will explore what living authentically means to you and work with your strengths to process past trauma and build a life that you’re excited to live fully.
Some of the approaches I Use...
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
- Culturally-sensitive approach
- Emotional literacy
- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
- Internal Family Systems
- Self- compassion
- Solution-focused
- Trauma-Informed care
- Unconditional positive regard
- Values exploration
