I work with a broad range of clients, which may not seem connected, but inevitably it is. I enjoy working with kids, teens, young adults, moms, and couples. What I incorporate into my sessions is authenticity, humor, and a pragmatic approach. I often say "let's throw spaghetti at the wall and see what works". I love working with those are actively involved in the therapy process. It's a collaboration between myself and the client. I draw from several modalities, so the approach is tailored to each client. I enjoy couples, divorce/separation, neurodivergent people, PDA (in children) and failure to launch.

Treatment Approach
- Christian Counseling Blends psychological practices with Christian values and scripture. It provides faith-based support for life challenges and spiritual growth.
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) One of the most widely used approaches, CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with healthier patterns. It is effective for anxiety, depression, and many other concerns.
- Eclectic Therapy Draws from different therapeutic methods based on what fits each client best. It is flexible and personalized rather than following one single model.
- Existential / Humanistic Therapy Encourages people to explore meaning, freedom, and authenticity in their lives. It focuses on personal growth and living in alignment with one’s values.
- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) A structured therapy that uses guided eye movements to help process traumatic memories. It is widely recognized for treating PTSD and trauma-related conditions.
- Play Therapy Uses toys, games, and creative play to help children express emotions. It is especially useful when children can’t fully verbalize their feelings.
Approach Description: I believe that each person and story is uniquely different and therefore requires a treatment that is tailored specifically to them. What I incorporate into my sessions is authenticity, humor, and a pragmatic approach. I feel that rapport is essential to the process of therapy and the relationship between the therapist and client is where healing begins. I pull from a lot of different modalities when working with clients. What I find is more important than a theory or modality is being there my client in whatever moment they are in.

I believe that we all want to be the best version of ourselves and there is always room to grow. We all go through experiences that challenge us, but we don't have to let it define us. "Knowing that we can be loved exactly as we are gives us all the best opportunity for growing into the healthiest of people."- Mr. Rogers
