“You are not weak just because your heart feels so heavy. I have never met a heavy heart that wasn’t a phone booth with a red cape inside.” – Andrea Gibson
Welcome to a space where anything can be discussed, no matter how big or small it feels. I view therapy as a collaborative journey where we work together towards positive change.
Noticing and shifting unhelpful thought patterns can be a challenging but transformative process. My primary commitment is to ensure that you feel fully supported along this path and that we proceed at a pace that feels comfortable for you. My style is approachable and conversational, and I believe in building a strong therapeutic relationship where we become a team working toward your goals.
I understand that opening up to a new person can be daunting, which is why I provide an easy-going and safe counseling environment. My aim is to create a trusting relationship where you feel not only comfortable but also truly understood.
As a strengths-based therapist, I am dedicated to empowering the people I work with to create positive change in their lives. I recognize that “positive change” is unique for each individual, so I utilize a variety of evidence-based techniques, including cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, and stress management. Together, we’ll create a toolkit of strategies that you can carry outside of our sessions, helping you navigate life’s challenges with greater ease.
My ultimate goal as a therapist is for you to feel that the skills we’ve developed together are not confined to our sessions but serve as valuable assets, guiding you toward a more fulfilling and balanced path in your daily life.
