Therapeutic Biography
First and foremost, you should be proud of yourself for taking this step! My ultimate goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where we can work together to navigate life’s challenges and uncertainties. Together, we’ll focus on building resilience and cultivating the meaningful, fulfilling life that you truly deserve.
My ideal patient is someone who approaches therapy with curiosity and openness, ready to explore their emotions and behaviors. I value working with individuals who are motivated to develop new coping strategies and work toward personal growth. Together, we’ll create a safe and collaborative space to process challenges, set meaningful goals, and celebrate progress.
Using a trauma-informed and holistic approach, I strive to meet you where you are, empowering you to find balance and healing in a way that aligns with your unique needs. I draw from a variety of evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Family Systems Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing (MI). Whether you’re managing overwhelm, improving relationships, or seeking peace within yourself, I’m here to support and guide you on your unique journey toward growth and well-being.
If no one has reminded you of this lately-- your well-being matters!
