Therapist Overview
*ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS JAN 2021- MON & THURS* It can be daunting to make the decision to reach out and contact a therapist. Just by doing this, you are already taking the first step towards reaching your goals. Whether you are seeking counseling for yourself or for your teen, taking the initiative can be scary. I work to create a positive and supportive environment in order to alleviate some of those fears. In addition to individual and couples work, I also work with teens and their families to develop effective communication while also focusing on your teen’s growth, identity development, thoughts, and emotions. I work with preteens and teens(12+), young adults, adults, & couples struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma or stressors, life transitions, marginalization, gender dysphoria, and identity development. I am especially passionate about working with individuals in the LGBTQIA+ community, teens, college students, and those in times of life transition. I believe that therapy should not be a space where you have to worry about being judged. As a counselor, I believe it is my role to give you unconditional positive regard, not judgement or punishment. This doesn’t mean that I will never challenge you or give you a dose of reality, but instead that I will never judge you for simply being who you are.
