Hi there, I'm Desiree!
I am calm, nurturing, and compassionate, and my highest priority is creating emotional safety as we begin our work together. I specialize in depression, anxiety, and trauma. I also work with relationship issues, co-dependency, family of origin concerns, adoption-related issues, and the LGBTQ+ community.
My focus
I typically work with adults dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, and difficult life transitions. I'm also interested in working with adults managing ADHD symptoms or those who want to reduce overall stress while increasing a sense of peace.
My approach
My approach is eclectic with an emphasis on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. We'll focus on the relationship between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors while identifying and shifting faulty core beliefs. What we believe can either help or hinder progress. Increasing positive coping, self-care, self-compassion, and mindfulness are essential.
