About

Dear New Client, thank you for beginning this journey. No matter what the response has been from your immediate friends, family, or inner critic, I believe you are making a good decision. Therapy is an inviting place where every single part of you is welcome, even the parts that are uncomfortable to share. Welcome back if you are starting again. There are certain elements necessary in therapy in order to maintain a space of positivity, growth, and healing. Yet, you are not responsible for maintaining those elements; that is the job of the therapist—my job. It is imperative that I maintain a judgment-free space, a space that is challenging but comforting, and a process that is enlightening as well as retrospective. Be open with me about your experience as it unfolds. And if it is not the experience you expected to have, I hope you advocate for yourself and seek support elsewhere if no remedy is found. I currently work with adults to manage depression, anxiety, anger, family, ADD, ADHD, ODD, career, and academics. I utilize cognitive-behavioral and rational emotive therapy in a client-centered manner. I am empathetic and provide a safe, welcoming environment for clients to discuss their goals and concerns.
