Biography

Asking for help can be one of the hardest and most vulnerable decisions in life. I am honored when others allow me to be part of their journey. My goal as a therapist is to meet people where they’re at. What this means is that whatever someone’s goals are, or if they don’t yet know what they are, I will join them and provide them the tools to support their movement forward. I provide people a space where they can explore their thoughts and feelings safely and without judgement.

I have been working in the mental health field for over 12-years, primarily with vulnerable population. I specialize in substance use and am a Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CAADC); as well as specialize in trauma work and use Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for PTSD. CPT is a 30+ year old evidence-based treatment where results are symptoms moving into remission and holding strong 5-10+ years later.

My other specialties include self-esteem, anger management, and communication/relational issues, with an emphasis on adults who have relational issues with their own parents. The foundation of my treatment is cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which is a focus on challenging negative thinking patterns, typically resulting in reduced symptoms, as well as an increase in confidence. I also integrate a strengths-based approach, motivational interviewing, some DBT skills, and mindfulness-based tools into my practice.

I believe that one of the most important factors in determining success in therapy is building a therapeutic relationship built on trust and open communication. I will work diligently to create a space where you will feel comfortable, listened to, validated, and safe. I understand that this process does not happen immediately, and I view therapy as a long-term investment in one’s self, rather than a “quick fix”.
