My Approach to Therapy
I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, PTSD, adjustment disorders, substance use, domestic violence, trauma, psychosis, and marital or family challenges. My approach blends existential therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), solution-focused techniques, and resiliency-based strategies to empower you to find meaning and build resilience. I’m inclusive, faith-friendly, and committed to creating a safe, supportive space where your unique experiences are honored.
With experience in diverse settings—including inpatient, outpatient, community clinics, and the VA—I tailor therapy to your needs in a safe teleheath space to suit you’re hectic lifestyle. Whether you’re facing life transitions, relationship struggles, or deeper emotional wounds, I’m here to partner with you on your journey toward healing and growth. Let’s work together to discover your strengths and create lasting change.
I offer free 15 minute phone consultations so call today and let’s talk.
What I Love about Being a Psychotherapist
I love people and I love their stories. I love watching people grow through their anxiety, cultivate resiliency and adapt and succeed and have increased peace and more enjoyable relationships. It's been 21 years and I still get excited every morning and truly love my career.
Importance of the Client-Therapist Alliance
When you're anxious or depressed, you may feel alone in your struggles. That's where I come in. The last thing you need is more anxiety or fear on your therapy journey. I've devoted my life to building strong and deep connections with my clients and ally with them as the strength of that bond is the most factor in a positive outcome, or in human it means I'm there with you from the free 15 minute consultation until graduation day when you are less anxious and have the resiliency to life the live that you deserve.
