About me
I am an experienced and dedicated clinical mental health counselor associate who specializes in trauma and addiction, and works with an array of mental health struggles.
I work with individuals who find themselves stuck in a pattern of destructive and repetitive behaviors which they cannot seem to stop. Perhaps you've experienced acute or prolonged trauma, such as domestic or sexual violence and you've learned to cope with alcohol or other substances. You need someone who will listen and help you navigate through life transitions, relationship issues, self-esteem, anxiety, depression, self-harm, and suicidal ideation which seem to be all connected to feeling trapped and lost, alone and scared and you just need someone to sit with you and help you heal from the deep pain enveloping you.
Healing is in the relationship to my client. I use an integrated therapeutic approach which also includes EMDR. I want to help you heal from the deep pain which is holding you back and cultivate resilience to embrace positive change. We will collaborate to navigate a path to your authentic self and learn, know, and deepen your self worth and value.
My approach to therapy is holistic, client-centered, and collaborative, meaning that I work with my clients to identify their unique needs and goals, then tailor my therapeutic techniques to best support them. I know what its like to feel like you are alone in your suffering. You do not have to suffer alone, let's start your healing journey together.
