About
My clinical background includes working with individuals struggling with substance abuse, children and families in the foster care setting, victims and perpetrators of sexual abuse and assault, and clients with generalized anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and trauma. I particularly enjoy working with young adults struggling with depression and anxiety who want to work on their self-esteem and create a stronger sense of self-worth. I am also passionate about working with mothers, some of whom are struggling to adjust to motherhood, find their voice, and recognize their value within the family system. I love working with clients who are motivated and goal-oriented to create the life that they want to live. I will support you along the way and help identify what exactly that looks like for you. I offer a non-judgmental clinical environment for clients to be able to process and identify what struggles they are currently faced with and start to unravel how those came to be. I would help to work through any experiences that you feel are relevant to where you are now and help you to connect how your experiences have shaped your thoughts, behaviors, and feelings. Clients have shared with me in the past that I am down to earth and that they feel comfortable opening up to me knowing that I will support them in their choices. Life can be really challenging at times. Most of us go through life having some sort of idea or plan of what we want to happen and oftentimes, we are faced with obstacles that we didn’t plan for. Some of those can seem overwhelming and even impossible to navigate. I want you to know that I am here to help you figure out a way to cope and make improvements in your life. I’m hoping after reading my bio, you feel like we would be a good match together.
