Therapist Overview
Counseling is a relationship building process and an opportunity for individuals to invest in their own wellbeing. I work collaboratively with clients to help them along their journey to wellness. I provide a calm and safe environment for individuals to examine and explore difficult and challenging life issues. I specialize in working with clients who struggle with anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, and adjustment issues. I have extensive experience working people in times of crisis. I utilized multiple approaches with an emphasis on person-centered, cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). In therapy we will work together to formulate a plan for growth through talking, brainstorming, and formulating a plan to improve mental wellness. I look forward to talking with you!
