A Bit About Therapy
Personalized Attention for All Your Needs
I implement effective psychotherapy methods to instill self-understanding among patients and encourage them to adopt new attitudes and feelings towards life situations. It is essential to keep in mind that therapy is not a magic pill or a quick fix: therapy is a healing process that necessitates participation and investment from the client and caretaker alike. But in the end, making small changes to self-defeating behavior and coping with feelings of sadness, fear, and pain can bring life-altering results.
About Me
A Licensed Professional Here to Guide You
Choosing to reach out to a therapist can be scary. It is not easy to talk to someone you do not know, but if you are willing to try, I will walk through the hard times with you. We can not fix everything overnight, as change takes time, but my mission is to help you find a healthy new direction in life. There is strength and potential to grow and change in all of us, but sometimes we just feel stuck and overwhelmed with all that life throws at us. You do not have to go it alone, I am here to help.
I hold a Bachelor of Science in Forensic Psychology, and Masters Degree in Mental Health Counseling. Since 2014, I have worked with a variety of clients dealing with circumstances that are unique to their lives. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution Focused Therapy all within a Person Centered Approach, working with adults and adolescents struggling with: Anxiety, ADHD, Depression, Bipolar Disorder, Anger, Personality Disorders, Trauma, and Relationship Problems.
It is a privilege to provide therapy in a relaxed, safe, non-judgmental and supportive environment. I am honored to be trusted with the most intimate and often difficult thoughts and feelings a person can experience. I will help you identify self destructive patterns, set realistically achievable goals, develop insight, self awareness, and strengthen self worth.
