About
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and have practiced as a psychotherapist for 14 years. Throughout my career, I've worked with diverse populations in various settings such as community mental health organizations, outpatient programs, and residential facilities.
As a therapist, I strive to understand clients' unique needs and strengths. I value their perspectives and believe their self-awareness is essential to future change. The therapeutic alliance that I have with clients is foundational to our work together and in many ways guides the counseling process.
I often utilize cognitive therapy in my work with clients, which involves understanding thought patterns and emotional triggers. Throughout therapy, I draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients recognize cognitive distortions and make healthy behavioral changes. I also utilize attachment theory to support clients in understanding their attachment needs and patterns in relationships so that desired growth can occur.
I have experience treating relationship conflicts, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, trauma, low self-esteem, and stress related to life transitions.
As your therapist, I will support you to better understand your struggles and strengths, identify changes that feel healthy, and progress towards greater wellness.
