Through personal experience during my time in the military as well as occupational experience working within the chemical dependency field I have seen first hand the curveballs that life can throw at us sometimes. But the beauty is that you don’t have to walk through these experiences alone. Some of the biggest signs of true strength come from embracing our vulnerability and reaching out to ask for help. I am here to walk through this journey of life with you and help you achieve your best life.
My approach to therapy embraces the importance of authenticity and encourages individuals to explore various areas of their lives where they may be struggling to see things in a new light and explore potential solutions. I embrace empathy, curiosity and humor when working with clients. A safe and supportive environment that encourages individuals to embrace their own authenticity and to express things freely is the very foundation of a strong therapeutic relationship.
I work with adolescents (15+) and adults. My areas of interest include working with individuals struggling with addiction, anxiety, depression, and trauma. Due to my personal background and experience I also have a strong passion to support individuals working as first responders, active and veteran military personnel as well as family members of these populations. My therapeutic style is eclectic in nature embracing ideas from Acceptance and Commitment therapy, Solutions focused therapy, Cognitive Behavioral therapy, Dialectical Behavioral therapy, mindfulness and movement approaches. Allow me to walk together with you along your path and assist in navigating the hurdles to attain the life you deserve and want to live.
