I work with adults to aid them on managing daily and life stressors, learning and breaking unhelpful thinking and behavioral patterns, as well as managing self-esteem issues, anxiety and impulsivity. Through active listening and support, my treatment philosophy involves helping clients improve their well-being by processing, building self-awareness, and developing tools to cope and manage their issues and concerns. My empathetic nature helps clients build trust to focus on working toward achieving their goals and overall wellness. I am a child-free, LGBTQIA+, and sex worker- affirming therapist.
I enjoy learning and research, and am driven to incorporate evidence-based practices into my therapeutic approach. I utilize eclectic therapy, emphasis on talk/processing therapy for support with a semi-structured approach. I am currently working toward certification in ADHD and trauma treatment to expand my knowledge and ability to help others.
