About me

My practice
I am passionate about empowering people to prosper in life. I pride myself on building secure, comfortable connections with my clients, as I have seen over and over that a strong therapeutic relationship is the precursor to lasting growth. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process where clients can explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in a supportive, empathetic and non-judgmental setting.
I have a strengths based approach to therapy that is grounded in evidence-based practices, including Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Schema Therapy, Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) and mindfulness-based interventions.
