Psychotherapy provides a confidential space for individuals to navigate a spectrum of challenges, from everyday stressors to complex issues. Therapists offer tools such as cognitive restructuring and mindfulness to manage daily stress effectively. For more significant problems like trauma or depression, psychotherapy provides structured support, helping clients explore underlying issues and develop coping strategies. Regardless of the scale, therapy offers insight, validation, and empowerment, fostering resilience and facilitating positive change in individuals' lives.

Individuals often come to psychotherapy when the coping strategies they were previously using are no longer helpful, and potentially, they have become problematic or destructive. Together we will explore the areas of your life that are frustrating you or causing you pain, and/or discuss situations or relationships from the past that are still impacting your life today.

Do you have a junk drawer in your home? I like to think of therapy like emptying out and organizing your junk drawer. Trauma and stress disorganizes our brain. Memories and experiences are scrambled and coping skills are hidden. Therapy lets us empty out those drawers, put them in order, throw out the things we no longer need, and find the things we’ve been searching for.

My approach to psychotherapy is grounded in compassion, collaboration, and authenticity. I use an integrative, evidence-based approach to help you navigate life's challenges, discover your strengths, develop strategies, and work towards your personal growth and well-being.
