I believe in you

I’m here to support you on your healing journey - however that may look. I believe in you, I believe in the therapeutic process, and I believe in the work we can do together.

All about therapy -a glimpse into the process

My approach to therapy is one that focuses on the individual and I hope you leave our sessions feeling seen, heard, and accepted. To do this, I use a mixed modality approach that includes Person-centered, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Emotion Focused, and Psychodynamic theories that I integrate to meet each individual clients needs and therapeutic goals. I specialize in college students and perinatal mental health counseling (pregnancy and postpartum); working with young adult and adult clients from a variety of backgrounds dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, disordered eating, life transitions, and relationship difficulties.

​

My goal is to establish a connection and collaborate with you, assist you in processing your experiences, thoughts, and emotions. I will teach you skills to manage these aspects, foster insight, and facilitate personal growth, enabling you to lead the life you desire. Counseling is a work in progress and I'm here to help you hone your ability to cope with, live with, and/or overcome your experiences and their impact.​

​

Following initial contact we will schedule an intake session to begin to gather information about what brings you to counseling, what life has looked like for you, and what you hope to get out of our work together.
