"Happiness is not something ready-made. It comes from your own actions." Dalai Lama Seeking therapy is an act of strength, not weakness. It requires self-awareness and courage to recognize when help is needed. Many individuals who pursue therapy are already doing well in life but want to improve certain aspects or overcome specific challenges. Collaborating with a licensed therapist offers the opportunity for objective, professional guidance to better understand obstacles, set meaningful goals, and work toward positive transformation. Therapy can lead to numerous benefits, such as more fulfilling relationships, enhanced energy and productivity, and a greater sense of well-being. In my practice, I work alongside clients to tap into their strengths, helping them gain clarity and find practical solutions. I approach each session with compassion and humor, supporting clients in achieving their personal goals. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is key to a successful therapy experience. I am committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental, and trusting environment where clients can freely explore their challenges.

Through The Trees Therapy currently has openings for clients both in person and telehealth, contact us today! At Through The Trees Therapy we believe that everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses and sometimes we just need the help and guidance of someone else to help us uncover what they are and help us navigate what they mean. I am passionate about working with children and adolescents to help them unlock potential and see how making changes could help them manage stress, depression, anxiety, and trauma. I am also passionate about working with young adults and adults to identify areas of their life where they may need to make changes in patterns and other ways of thinking that they may have never thought of before. I specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy, and I use this in conjunction with other types of therapy to tailor treatment to each individual. I help people look at how their thoughts, behaviors, and emotions are linked and to look for ways to make adjustments in these to reduce distress. I am also certified in trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy. My clients describe me as kind, understanding, and non-judgmental. I know taking the first step to reach out to a therapist can be a difficult one, but my hope is that together we can collaboratively create a space for you to feel empowered and in control of your life again. Feel free to contact me for scheduling!
