About me
I have been a social worker for more than ten years, working in a variety of settings from community clinics to rapid response crisis teams. I have experience with clients from all backgrounds and am focused on providing an inclusive and safe environment.
Worried about finding a therapist that gets you? Tired of working on the same problems over and over and making no progress? Do you know you need help, but don't know where to start? My approach incorporates existential therapy, DBT, and traditional psychotherapy to provide you with extensive support on your path to healing and personal growth. With an empathetic and understanding approach, we'll delve into your core values, beliefs, and purpose, assisting you in finding meaning and clarity amidst life's challenges. Moreover, we'll equip you with practical skills to manage emotions, regulate distress, and improve relationships.
Break Free from Substance Abuse: I understand how substance abuse can complicate one's journey and am experienced in addressing these issues, working collaboratively to develop effective interventions and coping strategies. By focusing on harm reduction and addressing the underlying issues we can work together to reclaim your life's purpose.
Our therapy sessions provide a nurturing and non-judgmental environment where you can openly express your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. By fostering an atmosphere of trust and acceptance, you can be empowered to explore your authentic self, understand your strengths, and develop a greater sense of self-compassion.
