Please describe your professional experience (this will be used on Therapist Finder)
I have over 23 years' experience working with children, adolescents, and adults whose life experiences have interfered with their ability to be their full, authentic self. My integrative approach to therapy is tailored to meet the unique and specific needs of each client. This therapeutic style helps clients explore core beliefs about themselves and facilitates growth towards inner strength and resilience. I create space for clients to believe and trust in themselves, while helping clients recognize how they respond to internal and external stressors as they navigate feelings of anxiety, depression, childhood wounds, and more.
To assist clients on their healing journey, I use evidence-based therapies and focus on ensuring that clients experience actual progress. As a trauma-informed clinician, I draw from my training in trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and ego state therapy to effect the change clients' desire. I am committed to making sure that new clients feel like an equal partner in their healing journey while fostering an environment in which all clients feel safe and heard.
