Have you ever asked yourself any of these questions? Do I need therapy? Are my problems and experiences important enough for therapy? What is the therapist going to think about me? Initiating therapy can be a difficult process. Understanding this, I strive to make everyone feel safe and comfortable in my office setting. I have worked hard to ensure that individuals feel at ease when exploring their past and present experiences. It is important to me that you leave with new skills to better cope problems you’re facing, enrich your relationships, as well as gain insight into the behavior of self and others. My goal is to assist you at being the best version of yourself. I utilize a varied theoretical approach, centered on methods of therapy including: emotionally-focused, cognitive behavioral, brief/solution-focused, intergenerational and narrative therapy.
