Using my skill set in cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing to guide my clients to their desired change.

My ideal client is someone who is ready to do the hard work and open to the idea of change. My client is engaged and excited about the process.
My approach
I like to provide a safe and non-judgmental environment for my clients. I provide guidance, support, and clinical interventions to help my client move forward with their presenting struggles. I use CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing in my daily therapeutic practice.
