Therapist Overview
I believe that the road to healing begins with a therapeutic relationship based on acceptance, trust, and unconditional positive regard. Using existential therapy and person centered approaches, I guide clients towards exploring strengths and values to help frame their thoughts, emotions, and experiences in a way that focuses on their proven resilience and empowers clients to live their most authentic lives. My greatest reward as a therapist is witnessing the courage and vulnerability clients demonstrate in taking steps to transform their lives by using healthy coping mechanisms, new forms of communication, and CBT techniques. I have a particularly broad experience in treating adults with both mental health and substance use issues. Some areas of specialty are anxiety and depression, men’s and women’s emotional health, trauma, body image, self-esteem, self-harm, adolescent behavior issues, and substance abuse.
