I view therapy as a brief snapshot into a person's experience. I take an active and collaborative approach where together we will first determine the behaviors, thoughts, and feelings that are most distressing to you, how they impact your day-to-day, and then together brainstorm various coping strategies that we can try so that you can live the life that you want.

From the day to day stressors to the more complex traumas, we can all use a safe space to process our experiences and get a sense of control over our lives. I am so glad you took the time to seek out support, which can be the hardest part of the process. I consider my therapeutic approach to be personable, genuine, and individualized to your needs. I like to support my clients through their own self discoveries and problem solving, which can look different for everyone. Additionally, I believe in a collaborative approach to be able to create a realistic treatment plan. I start by building a relationship with each client since it is proven that a positive therapeutic alliance is vital to progress in treatment. I use a variety of modalities and techniques including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), solution-focused therapy, and mindfulness practices. My goal as a therapist is to provide a judgment-free zone to be able to explore, reflect and provide insight on different levels of issues that can lead us to therapy.

I treat each client not as a combination of symptoms, but as a human being. I view therapy as a very human process, as well as a very sacred one. While I am theoretically grounded in narrative and postmodern practices, I believe in using an integrated approach including Solution-Focused therapy, Positive Psychology, Motivational Interviewing, Existential-Humanistic Therapy, Family Systems, client-centered therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I believe that positive outcomes stem from working collaboratively with clients to build trusting relationships while attending to every person’s unique needs. When we open up to another person and we make ourselves vulnerable, this is where true growth begins. I believe in individualized care that looks at each client’s unique story. I believe each client is unique and deserves my respect, as well as my compassion. I'm a therapist with Octave and Evernorth Behavioral Care Group.

People usually come to therapy because they want to feel better. Anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship problems, substance abuse/addiction, losing a loved one, work difficulties (to name a few) and life in general, can be very challenging and overwhelming at times. It is important to seek medical assistance for physical problems when we are not well; therefore, it is also just as important to seek emotional/mental assistance when needed. People who are willing to work on their issues by discovering, uncovering, and discarding what is not serving them emotionally and/or mentally, will be able to function better in their lives. I believe in always ""keeping it real"" with my clients. My ultimate goal is to help them begin a holistic journey of emotional, mental, and spiritual soundness. Each client is different and therapy isn't ""one size fits all."" I always strive to create an environment of safety, non-judgement, and healing! Seeking therapy takes a lot of courage! You have taken the first step to letting go of something that is holding you back in your life. It's going to be uncomfortable at times but in order to make a change, you have to take a risk!
