Welcome!

I specialize in providing therapy to teens and adults who are seeking help related to anxiety, depression, life transitions and parenting. My goal is to create a safe space for you to grow. Let’s work together to effectively identify and process emotions, challenge distorted perception, and change behavior patterns. With this growth you will experience positive change in all areas of your life, and feel more confident to tackle life’s challenges.

Client Process:

INTAKE ASSESSMENT

The first time we meet is the intake session. During this assessment I will gather your personal history and learn more about what brought you to therapy.

TREATMENT PLANNING

Following our initial assessment we will make a plan together on how we will move forward. I will tailor my approach to our sessions based on your needs and personal goals.

REGULAR SESSIONS

Consistency is important as we begin our work together. Weekly phone or video sessions are recommended in the beginning. We will regularly evaluate our therapy schedule and will adjust as needed as you progress through the therapeutic process.

Taking the first step can be scary. I am here to guide you along the way. My goal is to support you in a safe space, with unconditional acceptance.
