I enjoy working with adults to aid in self-growth by working toward overcoming daily and life stressors, learning and breaking behavioral patterns, as well as anxiety, depression, and self-esteem issues. 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 and work toward achieving their goals and building insight. I consider myself a LGBTQIA+ and sex worker- affirming therapist.
I have been in the field since 2014 at various levels of care with a passion toward helping others improve all aspects of their lives. I enjoy learning and research, and am driven to incorporate the best evidence-based practices into my therapeutic approach. I utilize eclectic therapy, emphasis on talk/processing therapy with a semi-structured approach.
