Research shows that the relationship between client and therapist is crucial in treatment success. Therefore, I strive to provide a safe, non-judgmental space for you to feel heard and understood. Although therapy can be difficult work, I aim to walk alongside you to provide the hope and support needed during your journey.
My approach to therapy focuses on your goals and preferences while maintaining an approach that has been clinically proven to bring about change. I have received training in both long-term and short-term treatment options in order to best meet the needs of my clients. For instance, some clients prefer interpersonal, insight-oriented treatment while others may tend towards a cognitive and behavioral treatment. I work in a collaborative manner in order to assess what option would best achieve your goals.I have experience working with a variety of mood disorders (depression, anxiety, bipolar, etc), relational/marital conflict, self-esteem issues, and spiritual concerns. I also have specialized training in psychological assessment as a tool to aid in treatment.
