About My Clients
I started working in mental health in 2004. I have worked in psychiatric hospitals, emergency rooms, community agencies, in schools, and private practice. During those years, I worked with children and adults as individuals, in groups, as couples, and in family therapy. My greatest passion has come from helping those who are in relationships overcome hurdles and reconnect on a deeper loving level.
My Background and Approach
I believe that therapy can be beneficial to anyone and everyone who wants to change something in their lives or wants to learn more about themselves. I see myself as a helper. Together we will explore your thoughts and emotions, build insight, identify fresh perspectives, and try new behaviors to enact the change you desire. You dictate your journey and I assist you in seeing different possibilities and paths to reach your goal. Being centered around your interests, I am open to using both evidence based scientifically researched approaches as well as new (or less traditional) methods to address obstacles. It’s all about what you will most be willing and able to do in real life that works best. So if it’s a combination of medication with therapy, I can help you find a psychiatrist to collaborate with; but if you’d rather avoid medications, we can explore lifestyle changes like diet, exercise, supplements, and other alternatives in combination with therapy.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I provide a safe, neutral, and supportive environment where you can enact the changes you desire to make in your life. Do you feel tired? Tired of living a life you did not choose for yourself. Tired of the constant struggle of being misunderstood. Tired of your emotions being dismissed or minimized. Tired of the easy solutions and endless advice that never seems works. So was I and one day I decided to do something about it. From as early as I can remember I had constant anxiety and in my first years of college it peaked to where I would have anxiety attacks almost daily. I decided to go to therapy and it took me down a journey that forever changed my life. It wasn’t easy but it made my life better and gave me a passion to help others change their lives as well.
