Approach/Practice Modalities

​

My goal is to provide a safe space and an outlet to talk about thoughts, feelings, and emotions. In working with my clients, my goal is to establish a connection, trusting therapeutic relationship, and a safe environment that can encourage emotional growth. Each client is unique, so treatment will be tailored to each individual and varying needs. Therefore, my approach is eclectic, incorporating various therapeutic modalities including using cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavioral, psychodynamic, and solution-focused therapy. I use a strengths-based approach to help empower my clients to cope with life's challenges and stressors to improve their lives. With the therapeutic relationship we build together, I look forward to helping you or your child/adolescent acquire skills and strategies to overcome any roadblocks that might be standing in the way of happiness and success.
