About me
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, as well as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I am passionate about helping adults with ADHD, anxiety, and chemical dependency issues (including alcohol) to better understand that they're not "bad dogs" but have experienced hurt and harm and have coped the best way they know how to. It's an honor to work with clients to help them become their own best advocates.
I'm approachable, warm, and bring my real-self into sessions. You will not be talking to someone without character. As someone who has Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and as someone who has been active in long-term recovery; I am fully aware of how important authenticity and patience is to improved mental health outcomes. I know therapy isn't a one-size fits all endeavor so I use a compliment of therapy strategies, including CBT, DBT, and Motivational Interviewing. We’ll work together using traditional talk therapy mixed with concrete skills building and a bit of “woo” (if you’re into or open to it). I love opportunities to share my love of creativity; think free-writing, lyric-analysis, and card cues (reflection/action oriented therapy decks, as well as Eastern and Indigenous philosophy sets.
