I believe counseling should be a place where you can be honest, curious, and fully yourself without feeling judged or pressured to have everything figured out.

My counseling style is collaborative, conversational, and individualized. I primarily draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), person-centered counseling, autonomy-focused work, and creative/expressive approaches. This means we may explore the connection between your thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and physical responses while also looking deeper at the experiences, patterns, and beliefs that shaped them.

I don’t believe therapy is about telling you what to do. My role is to help you better understand yourself, recognize patterns that may no longer be serving you, and develop the confidence and skills to make choices that feel authentic to who you are.

Sessions may include traditional conversation, challenging or reframing thoughts, nervous-system regulation, journaling, visual exercises, metaphors, creative activities, or other experiential approaches. Sometimes understanding something logically isn’t enough—we may also need to work with how an experience is held emotionally or physically.

You can expect me to be supportive and compassionate, but also willing to ask meaningful questions and gently challenge you when it may help you grow. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe enough to explore difficult things while still maintaining your independence, strengths, and ability to choose the direction of your life.

Counseling with me isn’t about becoming someone different. It’s about understanding yourself more clearly, healing what needs attention, and becoming more intentional about the person and life you want to create.

I work with adults, couples, and youth. And provide CBT, DBT skills, attachment styles, relationship building, sex therapy, creative therapy, and ACT. Available for in person or teleheath, weekdays, evenings, and Friday and Saturdays. Please contact us if you are interested in hearing more.
