Anxiety, depression, and those really difficult feelings can make us feel stuck, but there is hope. Let's focus on feeling better, personal growth, and healing by looking at the world through your eyes. Allow me to assist you through an empathetic lens that doesn't ask ""What's wrong with you?"", but instead, wonders what experiences lead you to where you are now. From there, we can figure out how to get you where you truly want to be. I use a trauma-informed lens and solution-focused approach to help guide the work I do with my clients.

As a therapist, I strongly believe in creating a comfortable and safe space for clients. Through my experience, I've found that my therapy style is more casual, where I find sessions being experienced as casual conversations. I also show clients that I am human too and let clients of mine know that I've had my share of life experiences and have experienced some of the feelings you've experienced based on your current stressors. I can truly empathize with you and your stress. I've heard from many clients that this approach has led them to feel more comfortable in the therapeutic space and with me as their provider.

I draw from many modalities including Cognitive Behavioral, Mindfulness, Solution-focused, and Psychodynamic theories. I am a strong believer that many people repeat patterns with details such as the characters, settings, and storyline changing while the deep-rooted emotional needs remain unresolved. I often explore themes that arise in session and encourage the insights we can collaboratively glean from this. We will also actively restructure thoughts, process emotions, and set short-term goals for behavioral change. I approach the therapeutic alliance with curiosity, humor, and openness and hope you may be willing to do the same! I'm a therapist with Octave and Evernorth Behavioral Care Group.
