My Approach
Compassionate, Empathetic & Active
As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I use a compassionate, empathetic and active approach to empower clients to navigate through life challenges, you will also find that I am curious and conversational. I have been described as caring, skilled and collaborative. I do believe that people have all the answers they just need the space to explore and connect to them.
Trained To Listen
I am trained to listen for themes or patterns and offer feedback based on what I hear. My experience both personal and professional has led me to believe, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that anything is possible. Clients who come to me who are stuck, discouraged or hopeless will find that I do believe that they can have a life beyond their wildest dreams. I am convinced people can change, overcome and thrive. Therapy is a very personal experience and I take my job seriously, however, I do laugh with my clients, I believe we can use humor to heal.
Value Relationships
I value my relationships with my clients and make myself easily accessible. I encourage clients to express if they are comfortable with my approach and techniques. I find consistency to be important and will use time between sessions to process possible ways to help my clients.
Innovative Techniques
I am passionate about using innovative techniques to treat trauma including EMDR. I have received specialized training in sex and couples therapy in order to offer my clients a specific approach to communicating. I enjoy working with individuals and couples helping them to overcome relationship issues as well as sexual issues that may be affecting their quality of life.
10+ Years Experience
I have over 10 years experience as a therapist and love what I do. I am constantly studying new approaches for treating a variety of issues in order to have the tools necessary to help my clients. I believe everyone's needs are different and want to work together to help my clients improve their lives.
