Supporting Your Well-Being

My practice has extensive experience working with anxiety, depression, mood, adjustment, substance related and addictive disorders. My previous experience spans years working in residential treatment and outpatient level of care with clients. I am able to offer effective outpatient individualized psychological care. I treat a number of mental health disorders and provide a neutral space for individuals. I specialize in substance usage and addiction treatment.  Therapy is a very personal and intimate experience that we enter for different reasons. It provides a space to heal, explore, learn new skills, and receive support. I am flexible in my approach in that I value understanding individual needs in order to provide the most optimal treatment possible. My priority is to help you meet your personal and life goals.

My therapeutic style utilizes a strength-based approach to engage individuals in a journey of self-acceptance and personal growth. My goal is to provide clients with an open, safe, and nonjudgmental environment to explore and evolve throughout each session. During our time working together we can identify attainable goals, address a variety of personal challenges, and improve overall well-being. We will collaborate with a focus on reduction of symptoms including an increase in daily functioning. We will utilize evidence-based theories to improve coping skills and strategies to manage and minimize emotional discomfort and distress.  As a licensed mental health clinician trained in cognitive behavioral therapy, DBT, solution focused and motivational interviewing, I offer my clients the attention, skill, and planning to develop strategies to improve their lives. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you to assist you in living the best version of yourself with an improved quality of life. 

Are you struggling with relationships, work stress or managing your daily life? Do you feel uncomfortable with your thoughts, feelings, moods and emotions? Are you lost on how to cope and manage life stresses? Are you struggling with alcohol or substances? Through treatment there can be inner clarity, confidence, long-lasting skills and strategies. Treatment can improve your relationship to yourself, others, resolve career-related issues and improve your ability to cope with life stressors.  My approach is direct but gentle, encouraging but not pressuring, proactive, and solution focused. I specialize in getting you to a place where traumatic experiences no longer have emotional holds on your present life. My goal is to help you connect with your authentic self and release that which hinders you.
