Hi! I am so excited that you are interested in starting therapy. It can be hard to take that first step to seek out a therapist, but by doing so, you have already demonstrated motivation and courage to face the challenges in your life. I believe that everyone has the potential to create a life that they enjoy, and I would be honored to assist you on your journey to attaining that. As we work together, I will encourage you to make the changes you want to see in your life.
My approach to therapy is collaborative, strength-based, direct, and non-judgmental. From the beginning, I work to create a space where you feel safe and comfortable sharing information about your life with me. I welcome people ages 13+ of all backgrounds, sexual orientations, gender expressions, and relationship styles. I don’t believe that therapy always needs to be serious, so I incorporate humor when appropriate. To meet your goals, we will work together to discover new perspectives and approaches to navigate the issues that you are experiencing.
I have level 1 and 2 clinical training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy, which is one of the leading approaches to couples therapy. I am also trained in Prepare/Enrich, a tool for premarital counseling and strengthening relationships at all stages. Let’s work together to help you reach your therapy goals.
