About My Clients

My clients already have what it takes to succeed. As a trained therapist, I join them to support their unique journey and provide customized skills-training & tools to overcome life’s challenges. My clients cannot be described in a box. They are resilient. They are your everyday neighbor, individuals with busy lifestyles that are overwhelmed by recent changes in cognitive functioning, parents keeping up with the increased mental load after expanding their household. They are worthy and amazing.

My Background and Approach

My approach is YOU-centered. One-size-does-not-fit all when it comes to therapy, and the inter-sectionalities of our identities influence our daily experiences. I utilize a comprehensive and strengths-based approach that incorporates a variety of modalities, including but not limited to the following: cognitive behavioral therapy, relaxation therapy, evidence-based cognitive and executive function coaching, and art therapy. I have clinical experience working with children, adolescents, adults of all ages, and inter-generational families. I am most experienced in treating patients with mood, anxiety, and trauma-related disorders. Diagnostically, I also have experience in treating cognitive decline, grief, stress, & life transitions. Empathy, cultural humility, and consistent client feedback guide my work with patients, and play a large role in cultivating a safe, therapeutic environment. You are the expert in your life; I’m only here to partner with you to make the changes you want.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that all individuals have the tools and skills to live fulfilling lives and attain their goals. That therapy should be client centered, because clients are experts in their lives. That clients should be met with empathy, cultural humility, and that consistent client feedback should be incorporated each step of the way. I believe that therapy is for everyone, and that we all are deserving of support along the way.
